NexPoint Waterford DST recorded its first sale on May 4, 2026 and has amended its Form D repeatedly since. The raise is still short of half the ceiling, and half the ceiling is where the first pace milestone sits.
Raise velocity is a pace metric Top1031 computes from the amendment dates themselves: the days from the first sale to the filing that first reports half the ceiling sold, then to 90%. Until a raise crosses those marks there is no number, only a path. The Trust, a Delaware Statutory Trust (DST) claiming 506(c) with a $100,000 minimum, has this one:
Filing date | Amount sold | % of $31,360,817 ceiling | Investors |
|---|---|---|---|
$483,297 | 1.5% | 2 | |
$633,297 | 2.0% | 3 | |
$1,235,705 | 3.9% | 5 | |
$2,210,891 | 7.0% | 8 | |
$3,372,616 | 10.8% | 10 | |
$4,577,616 | 14.6% | 13 | |
$5,362,099 | 17.1% | 17 |
Every amendment in this record reports more money sold and more investors than the preceding filing. The offering ceiling is unchanged.
What the record cannot show is anything about the asset. The Form D describes it as "Other Real Estate" and stops there: no property, no debt terms, no lease structure, nothing about what the Sponsor later reports to holders. A raise that fills quickly is subscribed, not proven. A raise that fills slowly may reflect distribution channels, timing, or the size of the check being asked, and the filings state none of those things. Absent a Sponsor statement, the reason for this pace is not known.
A later amendment reporting half the ceiling sold would establish the first days-to-50% reading. Until then, the filings provide dated amounts rather than a completed milestone.
