I am interested to learn about 1031DST Sponsors size and quality:
Size, capital under management, credibility in the industry. Some top 5 or 10 list is good.
Front-end load percentage, Management fees.
Capital Gain performance over the years (buy 2011 and exit 2018 of course has better gain)
Distribution performance vs projected distribution.
Thank you very much.
I have some lower cost single family residential rentals, thinking of rolling them into DST, give up the controls, gain some freedom (knowing we still have to do due diligence when projects exited, hopefully less works) , creating a stream of income and preserve capitals.
But reviewing a few DST projects the distribution projected are in the 4%-5% instead of what I remember 2-3 years ago in the >6% range. I guess price has gone high while rent remain low.
@Stephen H. You are right about rates being lower than a few years ago. In the end DSTs own real estate and the top sponsors have to pay more today than a few years ago.
If you want a list of the top sponsors I would look to get a copy of the MOUNTAIN DELL report. They have a comprehensive list that includes even the smallest of sponsors. What they don’t include is a lot of off-market private deals.
