The DST owns EMME, a high-quality asset featuring resort-style amenities and immediate proximity to the diverse offerings of Chicago’s West Loop submarket.
EMME is a vibrant 14-story, 199-unit Class A multifamily development that is 96% leased as of September 30, 2023. The asset was sourced by Hines Global Income Trust, Inc. (“Hines Global Income Trust” or “HGIT”), which has a $4.1B portfolio as of January 31, 2024, diversified by geography and property type with a focus on dynamic sectors and markets. HREX Multifamily I DST is a subsidiary of HGIT.
“Since launching Hines Global Income Trust almost 10 years ago, a companion 1031 exchange offering has been of growing interest from financial professionals and their clients,” noted Alfonso Munk, Chief Investment Officer – Americas for Hines. “We couldn’t be more pleased to help investors achieve their 1031 goals, as evidenced by the overwhelming response to HREX Multifamily I DST.”
HREX Multifamily I DST allowed qualified investors to complete a like-kind exchange of property under Internal Revenue Code Section 1031. The offering presented a compelling solution to aid in the deferment of capital gains and other taxes while providing the opportunity to diversify real estate holdings through the ownership of an institutional-quality asset.
