Form D filed

October 14, 2026

No public source located by October 16, 2026 names a property or portfolio for the Trust; the Form D classifies the issuer under Other Real Estate. A Form D is a notice of an exempt offering, not SEC approval and not a review of the offering's merits.

The sponsor has 23 programs on its record and three other active offerings: ADREX Diversified 12 DST, AIREX Industrial 11 DST and ADREX Diversified 11 DST. The first two are carried as industrial; the third is carried as a diversified portfolio.

Across DST Form D filings in the past year, the median minimum investment is $100,000 and the median maximum offering is $48.92 million.

Sources: Form D, AIREX Portfolio 12 DST, filed October 14, 2026; filing index, October 14, 2026; StreetInsider filings listing, published October 14, 2026.

Offering amounts are maximums from the Form D, not capital raised; amounts sold are as of the filing date, and medians come from Form D filings for likely DST issuers over the trailing twelve months, counted per filing and including amendments. How we report filings.
