Frequently asked questions

What does a DST sponsor do?

A DST sponsor is the real estate company that buys the property, sets up the Delaware Statutory Trust, raises money from investors and manages the trust until the property is sold. Investors own beneficial interests in the trust and have no say in day-to-day decisions.

How is a sponsor different from a broker-dealer?

The sponsor creates and runs the offering. A broker-dealer, through its registered representatives, offers the securities to investors and must review the offering before recommending it. Securities on Baker 1031 are offered through Aurora Securities, Inc., member FINRA/SIPC.

Why isn't this list ranked?

FINRA's communications rules don't allow promotional rankings without a fair, documented basis, and no public data set compares sponsors' full-cycle results on equal terms. The directory is alphabetical so it describes sponsors without rating them.

Does a sponsor's size tell you whether an offering is right for you?

No. Size measures how much money a sponsor has raised, not how investors fared. Each offering has its own property, debt, fees and risks, which are set out in its private placement memorandum.

Sponsor information comes from each sponsor's own website and public filings and is not an endorsement or recommendation. Baker 1031 may receive compensation from sponsors whose offerings it makes available. DST and other real estate securities are speculative and illiquid, distributions are not guaranteed, and you can lose your entire investment. Securities are offered through Aurora Securities, Inc., member FINRA/SIPC.
