Overview

Four Springs Capital reaches the 1031 market through Four Springs TEN31 Xchange, sponsoring net-lease DSTs concentrated in single-tenant industrial and medical properties under long-term leases to credit tenants such as Ford, Eaton and Carhartt. A deliberate focus on the $5 million-to-$200 million deal range keeps it below the institutional bid and above the retail scrum, a niche it has worked across more than 1,000 completed exchanges and over $1 billion in equity raised. As a subsidiary of Four Springs Capital Trust, it offers an UPREIT roll-up into the REIT, combining credit-tenant durability with a defined exit.

Key strategies & advantages

  • Reaches exchangers via Four Springs TEN31 Xchange, net-lease DSTs in single-tenant industrial/medical assets (Ford, Eaton, Carhartt).
  • Deliberately targets the $5M-$200M deal range, below the institutional bid and above the retail scrum.
  • Has completed more than 1,000 exchanges, deep 1031 throughput.
  • Offers an UPREIT roll-up into the affiliated Four Springs Capital Trust REIT.
  • Has acquired $1.3B+ in single-tenant net lease and raised $1B+ in equity.
These describe the sponsor’s approach and potential advantages only, and should be weighed against the risks common to DST investments — illiquidity, loss of principal, and no guaranteed distributions. Full risk factors are in each offering’s Private Placement Memorandum.
