What is a DST?
A DST (Delaware Statutory Trust) is a way to own a share of investment real estate without being the day-to-day landlord. Many exchangers use DST interests as 1031 replacement property when the offering is set up for that.
Why consider a Delaware Statutory Trust (DST) property as my 1031 exchange like-kind replacement?
A DST investment has some benefits over the original TIC property structure:
- Reduced Stress: DST property investors can receive passive income for up to 25 years or longer without worrying about vacancy, property management, leaky roofs, clogged toilets, taxes or insurance.
- Decreased Risk: Many tenants of DST properties are multi-billion dollar companies that pay their rent like clock-work.
- Higher Returns: Enjoy longer lease terms, lower vacancy rates, appreciation, and higher return on investment.
- More diversification options are available during the 45-day identification period: The minimum investment per DST is only $100,000. Thus, a $1,000,000 exchange can invest in as many as 10 different DSTs, providing excellent diversification.
- The DST automatically shields the investors from liability. There is no need for the creation of limited liability companies.
