DST Equity Raised Jumps 27% to $7.5B Through September
CRE Daily, republished by Yahoo Finance, reported $7.5 billion in DST equity fundraising through September 2026, up 27% from the comparable 2025 period. The figures are attributed to Mountain Dell Consulting, with AltsWire and Bisnow cited in the reporting chain.
The year-to-date increase contrasted with a weaker September alone: $357 million versus $461 million a year earlier. Ares led sponsor fundraising, followed by Blue Owl and ExchangeRight. Industrial properties represented the largest share of equity, ahead of multifamily. The report describes fundraising volume and allocation, not investment performance.
