OVERVIEW
What is a Delaware Statutory Trust (DST)?
A Delaware statutory trust (DST) permits fractional ownership where multiple investors can share ownership in a single property or a portfolio of properties, which qualifies as replacement property as part of an investor’s 1031 exchange transaction. A DST takes all decision-making out of the hands of investors and places it into the hands of an experienced sponsor-affiliated trustee.
Institutional-Quality Property: Most real estate investors can’t afford to build a diversified portfolio of multimillion-dollar properties. DSTs allow investors to acquire partial ownership in properties that otherwise would be out of reach.
Lower Minimum Investments: DSTs can accommodate much lower minimum investments. 1031 exchange minimums often are $100,000 or less.
No Management Responsibilities: Investors can divide their investment among multiple DSTs, which may provide for a more diversified real estate portfolio across geography and property types. The DST is the single owner and agile decision maker on behalf of investors.
Assumable Financing
How does debt work with DSTs?
When investors acquire debt as a beneficiary of a DST, they neither have to qualify for the loan nor take responsibility for the loan. The investors do not have to submit financial background information to the mortgage lenders or worry that some unexpected hurdle will block their financing. The loan will not appear on their credit scores. And in the unlikely event that the loan becomes delinquent, the delinquency will not affect the investors’ credit.
Instead, the investors receive many loan benefits. The debt amounts increase their investment values. The loans meet the 1031 exchange debt reduction principal requirements. And can apply their portions of the loan interest payments to their tax write-offs each year.
