Fractional Ownership in Real Estate: DSTs
A Delaware Statutory Trust (DST) is a form of entity that permits fractional ownership of real estate assets. Multiple investors can share ownership in a single property or a portfolio of properties owned by the DST.
The beneficial interests of a DST are treated as a direct interest in real estate for tax purposes, so the DST interests qualify as “like‑kind” property in a 1031 exchange. An investor can defer taxes by investing in a DST rather than in a whole property.
Why consider
a DST?
- Potential to own institutional quality real estate
- Diversification by tenant, property type, location
- Turnkey solution: FSCT is responsible for sourcing, due diligence, structuring & financing of debt, and property & program management
- Immediate property identification with an expedited closing process due to imminent timing deadlines
- Certainty of closing on acquisition of replacement property
- Eliminate all property management headaches
- Long-term non-recourse financing in place, if applicable
HOW IT WORKS
1
FSCT funds the acquistions of the DST properties in their entirety
Subscription risk is
mitigated by complete
ownership by FSCT.
2
FSCT is a co-investor while offering beneficial interests for accredited investor ownership.
Co-investment creates
an alignment of
interest between FSCT
and investor.
3
Liquidity Options
Client sells a property and purchases a DST.
Liquidity Event
Potential Exit Strategies
The exchange is made at the option of FSCT and each DST investor
What’s unique about
the FSXchange
approach?
- FSCT funds the acquisition of the DST properties in their entirety and allows investors to co-invest with it in institutional quality real estate
- FSCT is a co-investor while offering beneficial interests for accredited investor ownership
- Flexible liquidity options
UPREIT: OP Unit Exchange
Property Exchange Program (PXP)™
Through our Property Exchange Program (PXP)™, Four Springs Capital Trust allows owners of a single tenant net leased property or a portfolio of net leased properties to sell their properties to us in a tax deferred UPREIT exchange for our OP Units. Our OP Units are exchangeable for our common shares. We can also structure transactions to include cash and the assumption of in‑place debt on properties, as well as our OP Units.
Note: All potential sellers should consult their own tax and other advisors before entering into an UPREIT transaction with us. We will pay commissions to licensed real estate brokers who present transactions that we close in our PXP, subject to entering into an agreement.
HOW IT WORKS
Note: Note that Section 721 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, contains specific requirements that must be met in order to qualify for the tax deferral provided by such provision. Nothing contained in this website constitutes tax advice, and individuals should consult their own tax and other advisors when considering such transactions.
