What the record shows
DPM is the program family of DealPoint Merrill, a Los Angeles real-estate investor and developer that says it has operated since 1985 across development and construction, property and asset management, retail shopping-center conversions, and self-storage. The firm describes itself as a wholly owned affiliate of its family office, an owner-operator of value-added and redevelopment assets, a sponsor of real-estate co-investment offerings, and a co-investor in every property it buys. Its brochure reports more than 20,000 self-storage units branded and managed by CubeSmart and LifeStorage. In Richmond Heights, Ohio, a July 2021 purchase brought its former Richmond Town Square holding to 69 acres for the Belle Oaks Marketplace redevelopment.

Read the sponsor-stated result
SEC Form D for the exact issuer contains no post-raise disposition or status, while DealPoint Merrill's Belle Oaks disclosures concern a sponsor-led redevelopment and a separately named DPM Belle Oaks Marketplace Fund 1 LLC; therefore no direct sale, 721/UPREIT, foreclosure, distress, or continuing-ownership outcome is established for DPM BELLE OAKS DEBENTURES 1 LLC.
Read the sponsor-stated result
No dated, affirmative evidence of either a sale/721 conversion or continuing trust ownership of the 3800 W Broad Street Columbus OH CubeSmart facility could be located (LoopNet listing is archived from 2019, the DealPoint Merrill property page is undated, and only the original July 28, 2022 Form D exists), so the prior 'still_operating' classification lacks the dated affirmative proof required and is replaced with 'unknown'.
Read the sponsor-stated result
The St. Charles MO self-storage facility at 2669 Veterans Memorial Parkway remains listed as an active DealPoint Merrill property with no sale, 721 conversion, or full-cycle announcement located in any reviewed source.
Who they are
Platform and strategy
DealPoint Merrill describes itself as a fully integrated national real-estate investor and developer and a wholly owned affiliate of its family office, working as an owner and operator of value-added and redevelopment assets and as a sponsor of real-estate co-investment offerings in which it co-invests 1. Its About Us page places the firm in Los Angeles since 1985, with business lines spanning development and construction, property and asset management, retail shopping-center conversions, and self-storage, and says it targets urban infill locations in supply-constrained markets with high barriers to entry using detailed research, predictive property modeling, and in-house construction, entitlement, and asset-management teams. The same page describes value-add work that can involve capital improvements and tenant-mix changes, refreshed capital structures, leasing and marketing, property management and cost reductions, or a change of use through zoning and entitlement, and states that senior management and shareholders have collectively acquired, refinanced, and sold major real-estate assets in excess of $1 billion, inclusive of development and redevelopment 2.
Reported portfolio scale
The sponsor brochure states that the national development portfolio holds more than 20,000 Class A institutional-quality self-storage units branded and managed by CubeSmart and LifeStorage, and that DealPoint Merrill has completed 10 retail developments and managed more than one million square feet of retail shopping centers 3.
Belle Oaks Marketplace, Richmond Heights, Ohio
On July 26, 2021, DealPoint Merrill announced completion of its acquisition of the remaining Richmond Town Square mall site, extending its owned area there from 33 acres to 69 acres and identifying the site as the location of the Belle Oaks Marketplace project 4. A sponsor property page names DPM Belle Oaks Marketplace Fund 1 LLC, with DealPoint Merrill, LLC as sponsor, for a planned 1.7-million-square-foot redevelopment of the roughly 70-acre former mall site into 798 apartments, a 159,000-square-foot Meijer supercenter, and 120,725 square feet of retail and restaurant space 5. Multi-Housing News reported on May 5, 2026 that the firm obtained $55 million in construction financing for the first phase of the mixed-use Richmond Heights redevelopment 6.
