DST Exit Due-Diligence Checklist
Blue Vault has published a one-page checklist for advisers examining how a Delaware statutory trust investment may end. It focuses on the offering documents, the conditions required for an exit and the investor's possible decisions, including how any Section 721 feature is characterized.
The resource also asks advisers to consider alternatives if the anticipated exit does not happen and to examine the exit as carefully as the property's income, leverage and sponsor. Blue Vault cautions that a 721-related outcome is not assured, and identifies liquidity, fees and potential tax consequences as areas for review.

- Does the announcement concern a specific offering, the sponsor, or the broader DST market?
- What do the current offering documents say about the properties, debt, fees, risks, and exit assumptions?
