Fundraising for Delaware statutory trust offerings, typically used to facilitate securitized 1031 exchanges, totaled just over $3.8 billion for the year through September 2023, according to data provided by Robert A. Stanger & Co. and Mountain Dell Consulting. Based on the average monthly fundraising through the first three quarters of 2023, DSTs are on pace to raise approximately $5.1 billion for the full year.

The industry is experiencing a significant slowdown compared to recent years, when DST sponsors raised a then record $7.2 billion in 2021, which was smashed just a year later when DSTs attracted approximately $9.2 billion in 2022.

Top sponsors through the end of September include:

Ares led sales with a total equity raise of $66.2 million in September and a year-to-date tally of $674.3 million.

Inland Private raised $40.3 million for the month, with a year-to-date total of $419.6 million.

LaSalle Investment Management, via JLL Income Property Trust, brought in $21.2 million in September, bringing their annual raise to $315.8 million.

ExchangeRight totaled $24.2 in September and $279.6 million year-to-date.

Capital Square’s September sales equaled $8.1 million for an annual total of $206.1 million through the closer of the third quarter.
