About Nelson Brothers
Nelson Brothers is the sponsor name attached to eleven NB-named programs whose issuers first filed between 2014 and 2017. A 2023 filing records Nelson Brothers Professional Real Estate as founded in 2007 and states that a 2018 restructuring led Brian Nelson to start NB Private Capital, renamed Versity Investments, LLC and then Crew; that platform sponsors and services Delaware statutory trusts built for 1031 exchanges, emphasizing student housing and market-rate multifamily property. Validated outcome records show property sales for NB Sawmill TIC 2 in June 2022 and NB Duck Abbey in December 2024, while court records document bankruptcy and lender enforcement at NB Taylor Bend and NB Element.

Program record
Top1031's validated outcome record for NB Sawmill TIC 2, LLC reports an exit by property sale dated June 1, 2022, citing a same-day announcement that Coastal Ridge Real Estate and Goldman Sachs Asset Management acquired The Commons at Sawmill 4. A second validated outcome record reports NB Duck Abbey, DST as exited by property sale in December 2024, after a hold of about 10.4 years 5.
A published Fifth Circuit opinion dated June 4, 2024 records that NB Taylor Bend, DST defaulted and filed Chapter 11 after its debt was accelerated, that the bankruptcy court lifted the stay in September 2021 so the pledged apartments could be foreclosed, and that an affiliate of North American Savings Bank acquired them for $8 million; the sponsor-reported track record identifies the collateral as Taylor Bend Apartments in Lafayette County, Mississippi 6.
A May 13, 2026 memorandum opinion of the U.S. Bankruptcy Court for the District of Delaware describes NB Element, DST as a single-asset Delaware statutory trust whose sole asset is a Sacramento student-housing project. At Fannie Mae's request the trust entered receivership in September 2025 and filed Chapter 11 in April 2026, having borrowed more than $53 million secured by the property; venue was transferred to the Eastern District of California 7.
