PEACHTREE GROUP LAUNCHED its latest Delaware Statutory Trust with the acquisition of a newly built 131,040-square-foot industrial facility in Mansfield, Texas. The company has completed about $320 million in debt-free transactions since launching its DST program in 2022, according to its statement.
The rear-load building, completed in 2025, features 36-foot clear heights, a three-acre outdoor storage yard and room for future expansion. The property was acquired for $180 per square foot, below market comparables, and is fully leased to Ferguson, a distributor for professional contractors in North America, Peachtree said in a statement.
“In today's higher-rate environment, where tighter credit and volatile valuations challenge traditional ownership, DSTs have emerged as a compelling alternative,” said Greg Friedman, Peachtree’s managing principal and CEO. “They deliver attractive cash flows backed by institutional-quality assets, while also offering tax advantages, professional management and diversification.”
Ferguson signed a 10-year corporate lease beginning in March, with 3 percent annual rent escalations, two five-year extension options and limited landlord obligations, the statement said. With investment-grade credit ratings from S&P BBB+ and Moody’s Baa1, the tenant supports the trust’s income stability and risk profile.
Peachtree’s DSTs, Opportunity Zones and REIT structures form a platform aimed at tax efficiency, compounding benefits and risk-adjusted returns, supported by Peachtree’s integrated asset management.
“Expanding into the industrial sector is a step toward building a diversified DST platform that can perform across cycles,” said Tim Witt, Peachtree’s president of 1031 Exchange and DST Products. “DSTs turn a looming tax bill into compounding wealth, keeping money in commercial real estate, but their true strength is pairing tax efficiency with investments that stand on their own merits.”
Atlanta-based Peachtree is led by Friedman; managing principal and CFO Jatin Desai and principal Mitul Patel. In July, Peachtree added the 128-key SpringHill Suites Phoenix West Avondale in Arizona as its ninth Delaware Statutory Trust offering since launching the program in 2022.
