Overview

Starboard Realty Advisors is an Irvine fully integrated firm, founded in 2014 and led by a CEO with prior Passco pedigree, acquiring multifamily and multi-tenant/NNN retail for 1031 clients, with more than $500 million in acquisitions and over 1,900 units. Its differentiation includes a DST Bridge Fund that supplies preferred equity, an ADU-driven multifamily value-add angle, and a disciplined 7-to-10-year stabilized hold model. The leadership lineage and integrated execution position it as a focused mid-market sponsor.

Key strategies & advantages

  • Led by a CEO with prior Passco pedigree, bringing experienced 1031 sponsorship leadership.
  • Acquires both multifamily and multi-tenant/NNN retail for exchange clients.
  • Operates a DST Bridge Fund supplying preferred equity, a differentiated capital tool.
  • Pursues an ADU-driven multifamily value-add angle.
  • Underwrites to a disciplined 7-10-year hold; $500M+ acquisitions across 1,900+ units.
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.
