 Delaware Statutory Trusts: Innovative Real Estate Investment Strategies


At WMS Wealth Management, we specialize in helping investors unlock sophisticated investment opportunities like Delaware Statutory Trusts (DSTs) - a powerful vehicle for real estate investment and tax planning.


Understanding Delaware Statutory Trusts


A Delaware Statutory Trust represents a cutting-edge investment structure that allows accredited investors to acquire beneficial interests in high-quality commercial real estate assets with unique advantages. Unlike traditional real estate investments, DSTs offer a streamlined, passive approach to property ownership.


Key Features of DST Investments


 Passive Ownership

Professional real estate management firms, known as sponsors, handle all operational aspects, from property acquisition to ongoing management.


Diversified Asset Classes

Investors can access a wide range of institutional-grade properties, including:


  • Multifamily residential complexes
  • Medical office portfolios
  • Industrial distribution centers
  • Senior living communities
  • Net-leased retail properties


1031 Exchange Opportunities


DSTs are particularly powerful within 1031 exchanges, providing investors with a strategic method to defer capital gains taxes while maintaining real estate investment exposure. Our wealth management experts can guide you through this complex process, ensuring compliance with IRS regulations.


 Unique Investment Benefits


Tax EFFICIENCY

Potential deferral of capital gains and depreciation recapture taxes

Fractional Ownership

 Access to premium real estate assets with lower individual investment requirements

Limited Liability

Investors' personal risk is restricted to their invested equity

Important Considerations


While DSTs offer compelling advantages, investors should be aware of specific characteristics:



  • Investors relinquish direct voting rights to the trust manager
  • Strict adherence to IRS guidelines is crucial
  • No personal assumption of property-level debt
  • Investments are typically illiquid
