JLL Overview

JLL Exchange (JLLX) is the DST and 1031 platform of JLL Income Property Trust, an institutionally managed daily-NAV non-traded REIT carrying roughly $6.5 billion in portfolio assets. Its structural differentiation is meaningful: a daily-NAV REIT backbone, a low-fee institutional posture, and a defined 14-transaction, roughly $960 million full-cycle UPREIT track record that lets exchangers roll DST interests into a diversified, professionally managed REIT. Backed by JLL's global sourcing, JLLX has raised more than $1.7 billion across 26 DST offerings, positioning it among the more institutional options in the category.

JLL Strategies & Advantages

  • Operates JLLX, the DST arm of JLL Income Property Trust, on a daily-NAV non-traded REIT backbone.
  • Has raised $1.7B+ across 26 DST offerings.
  • Completed 14 full-cycle UPREIT transactions totaling ~$960 million, a proven exit.
  • Maintains a low-fee, institutional posture relative to typical retail DSTs.
  • Backed by JLL's global sourcing and a ~$6.5 billion portfolio.
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.
