This is education, not a pitch
Everything here is meant to help you understand how 1031 exchanges and DSTs actually work, so you can have an informed conversation with your own tax and legal advisors. Nothing on this page is an offer to sell or a solicitation to buy any security. We teach — you decide.
Important risk disclosures
Real estate investments, including DSTs, involve risk — including illiquidity, loss of principal, vacancy, interest-rate risk, and changes in tax law. DSTs are longer-term, illiquid investments, and the sponsor controls the timing of any eventual sale. Past performance is not indicative of future results.
DST offerings are generally available only to accredited investors as defined under SEC Rule 501 of Regulation D. Any distributions or tax outcomes described are potential, not guaranteed. Prospective investors should read all offering documents carefully before investing.
