Exploring Delaware Statutory Trusts (DSTs)

Delaware Statutory Trusts (DSTs) are introduced as a potential investment strategy in real estate, particularly for those considering a 1031 exchange to defer capital gains taxes. A DST is a legal entity designed to hold real estate and provides a way for investors to pool their resources. However, investing in a DST comes with the caveat of illiquidity and complex fee structures, which can reach up to 17% when combining various costs. The general consensus is that while they may serve specific purposes, investors could obtain better flexibility and lower fees through traditional investment methods.
