Form D Item 15 and Item 16 amounts may be the issuer’s estimates; each percentage is Top1031’s arithmetic on two Form D figures. Item 16 can overlap Item 15, so Top1031 does not add them together. The issuer marked these amounts as an estimate.

What does the SEC record show?
The Trust's paperwork is a single Form D — the brief notice an issuer files with the SEC for an exempt private offering — reporting a $5,920,000 offering as of December 27, 2023. Because it relies on Rule 506(b), the Trust may not advertise publicly and sells to accredited investors through pre-existing relationships.

Common questions
- What happened to Carhartt Global Design & Corporate Headquarters?
- Carhartt Global Design & Corporate Headquarters is a Historical offering. Last Form D filed Dec 27, 2023.
- What does this Trust actually own?
- A single office building of 58,722 square feet on a 7.7-acre parcel at 5750 Mercury Drive in Dearborn, Michigan, which Carhartt uses as its corporate headquarters and as its design, research and development facility. It was a build-to-suit for Carhartt in 2002, and Syndicated Equities acquired it in 2023.
- Who is the tenant and what are the lease terms?
- Carhartt is the sole tenant and leases the whole building on a net-lease basis, meaning the tenant bears property-level operating costs. Trade coverage citing CoStar and Net Lease Office Properties documents reported annual rent of roughly $750,000 with contractual annual increases. The lease expiration date is not established in the sources reviewed; the offering documents would state it.
- Does the Trust use mortgage debt?
- Not established. A Form D does not require leverage disclosure, and no sponsor or third-party source reviewed identifies a loan, lender, or loan-to-value for this Trust. An investor would find the debt structure, if any, in the offering documents.
- Is there a 721/UPREIT exit path?
- Nothing in the filing record indicates a planned 721 exchange, in which a DST's property is contributed to a REIT's operating partnership in return for partnership units instead of cash. Top1031's data shows no REIT-conversion feature for this Trust.
- Who owned the building before Syndicated Equities?
- It came out of Net Lease Office Properties. Connect CRE reported on January 31, 2024 that the Carhartt building sold for $9.8 million within a portfolio transaction involving four U.S. office properties that generated approximately $43.1 million in gross proceeds.
