Overview

Cantor Silverstein Opportunity Zone Trust is a joint venture between Cantor Fitzgerald and Silverstein Properties, structured as a non-traded Opportunity Zone REIT focused on ground-up development in qualified zones. It pairs Silverstein's marquee development expertise with Cantor's capital-markets distribution—a combination that gives the vehicle unusual credibility for a QOZ program—though current AUM is not publicly disclosed. The structure suits investors seeking capital-gains deferral and step-up benefits through institutional development rather than stabilized cash flow.

Key strategies & advantages

  • Joint venture of Cantor Fitzgerald and Silverstein Properties, pairing distribution with marquee development.
  • Structured as a non-traded Opportunity Zone REIT delivering deferral and step-up benefits via development.
  • Draws on Silverstein's institutional ground-up capability, rare credibility for a QOZ program.
  • Has raised roughly $1 billion across its CSOZ Trust and successor funds.
  • Focuses on multifamily/mixed-use development in qualified zones rather than stabilized cash flow.
These describe the sponsor’s approach and potential advantages only, and should be weighed against the risks common to DST investments — illiquidity, loss of principal, and no guaranteed distributions. Full risk factors are in each offering’s Private Placement Memorandum.
