Origin Exchange Update: Expanding DST Opportunities from Nashville to Charlotte

OCA-Webinar-Origin-Exchange-Open-DST-Offerings-Video-Thumb-Featured-Image

At Origin Investments, we’ve built a powerful platform for 1031 exchange investors—Origin Exchange—designed to help preserve capital, defer taxes, and generate passive income through carefully curated Delaware Statutory Trust (DST) offerings.

With three DST deals closed in the past year, Origin Exchange is quickly becoming one of the top DST sponsors in the country. Backed by our institutional real estate expertise, we’re excited to present two new DST opportunities in high-growth markets.

On this webinar, Michael O’Shea, Head of Private Wealth, is joined by Dave Welk, Managing Director of Acquisitions. You’ll hear a quick overview of the Origin Exchange program, followed by in-depth presentations on:

  • Nashville Queens – A Class A multifamily property in the vibrant Wedgewood-Houston submarket of Nashville, a rapidly growing neighborhood with high barriers to entry.
  • Charlotte NoDa DST– A Class A multifamily development in Charlotte’s dynamic Mill District, offering walkable access to jobs, transit, and lifestyle amenities.

The webinar presentation lasts about 40 minutes, with an additional 20 minutes of Q&A.

Some key takeaways from the presentation:

  • Two-step tax-deferred strategy: Investors can do a 1031 exchange into a DST, then convert to the IncomePlus Fund via a 721 exchange to gain diversification and avoid future 1031s.
  • High-quality DST assets: Origin’s Nashville and Charlotte properties are Class A, off-market acquisitions in strong growth markets with premium amenities.
  • Strong performance & upside: Both properties are exceeding leasing and retention goals, with projected 5%+ annual rent growth.
  • Low-fee structure: No broker commissions or hidden fees—only a 1.25% acquisition fee and 0.5% expense reimbursement.
  • Confident despite supply concerns: Origin uses proprietary data tools to identify resilient markets like Charlotte, which just posted record-high apartment absorption.
