What investors should
know about ARCTRUST

ARCTRUST is known for sponsoring Delaware Statutory Trust (DST) 1031
exchange offerings. DSTs allow investors to defer capital-gains taxes by
exchanging sold real estate into a beneficial interest in a trust that
owns replacement property. The structure is passive, but it also means
investors give up management control and depend heavily on the
sponsor.

Common
risks in DST investments sponsored by ARCTRUST

Risk Why it matters
Illiquidity DST interests are not publicly traded and may have no meaningful
secondary market
Sponsor dependence Investors cannot vote, refinance, or direct management
decisions
Long holding period Many DSTs are structured for 5–10 year holds with limited exit
options
Distribution suspension Cash flow problems can cause distributions to stop without investor
consent
Debt and refinancing risk Property-level debt decisions are controlled by the sponsor

Did your broker
recommend a DST sponsored by ARCTRUST?

If your broker or financial advisor recommended a DST sponsored by ARCTRUST that
lost money, suspended distributions, or was otherwise unsuitable, you
may have a claim. Broker-dealers must conduct reasonable due diligence
under FINRA Rule 2111 and FINRA Regulatory Notice 10-22 before
recommending private placements such as DSTs. They must also make sure
the recommendation fits the customer’s investment profile.

Common failures include:

  • recommending an illiquid DST to an investor who needed access to
    capital;
  • failing to disclose the risks of the specific sponsor or
    property;
  • relying on optimistic projections without independent
    verification;
  • not explaining the fees, dealer concessions, or conflicts of
    interest.

What to do
if you have concerns about a DST sponsored by ARCTRUST

Investors who believe they were misled or placed in an unsuitable DST sponsored by ARCTRUST should gather their brokerage statements, subscription
agreements, private placement memoranda, and correspondence with the
broker. A securities attorney can review those documents to identify
whether the recommendation was suitable and whether the broker-dealer
met its due diligence obligations.
