FSC Industrial II DST Reached Full Cycle by a 721 Roll on June 26, 2020, One Year After Its First Form D

A casualty event damaged the property during the offering period, and Four Springs's October 2023 fund profile is the only public document that describes the exit.

Published Updated

On June 26, 2020, all syndicated beneficial interests in FSC Industrial II DST, a Delaware Statutory Trust (DST) sponsored by Four Springs (FSX), were acquired by what footnote 4 of the sponsor's FSC IP-27 DST Fund Profile, dated October 24, 2023, calls "the Operating Partnership," at a purchase price the footnote describes as "equivalent to investors' original investment in the DST (net of commissions)." The acquisition came after a casualty damaged the property while the offering was open, per the same footnote.

Top1031 classifies the exit as a Section 721 UPREIT roll, which is generically the contribution of property to a REIT's operating partnership in exchange for operating-partnership units.

The dates set the hold. Four Springs filed the Form D for the Trust on June 17, 2019; the interests changed hands the following June.

Footnote 4 also states that investors were permitted to roll into FSC Healthcare V, DST without paying commissions. Whether any investor did is not on the record.

No return figure of any kind sits on the record for this Trust: no total return, no annualized return, no equity multiple, and no stated disposition value. The offering documents' distribution terms are not in the public file either, so there is nothing to set the outcome against.

The footnote gives sequence and leaves the rest open. It does not say what form of consideration the exiting investors received, and it names neither the REIT nor the operating partnership that acquired the interests. How much of the offering amount had been subscribed when the casualty occurred is not stated. Neither the Form D nor the footnote identifies the property, its tenant, or its location; the Form D reports only the asset class, and no other public document in the record supplies them. The nature and extent of the casualty are likewise undescribed.

This is the first disposition on Top1031's full-cycle record for Four Springs. One footnote is the whole of it.
