Investing in Delaware Statutory Ttrusts (DSTs)

[Stephen Masek]

Have you invested in a DST or DSTs? Rima and I recently discovered them. For "little fish" with just a few million to invest, they seem far better than buying one or a few NNN properties, which puts all of your eggs in one or a few baskets.

The main down side to investing in DSTs is control... you have none. No voting rights, no management rights, no rights to determine what is bought and sold. You are a passive investor with no input. They are a great tool to exchange into with a 1031 if you can't find a property to exactly fit your needs. They can be a more modest income than a NNN. but with less risk and more predictability. However, another major negative is that you also must be in it for the long run because you can't really sell your interests.
