JLLX Milford Crossing, DST is a private placement Delaware Statutory Trust (DST) investment. DSTs are an alternative for 1031 exchange investors seeking replacement properties and allow for fractional ownership of properties acquired by and managed by large real estate firms (DST sponsors). JLLX Milford Crossing filed a Form D with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) to raise capital from investors for the offering of its DST in 2020. According to SEC filings, the minimum investment accepted from any outside investor was $500,000.
JLLX Milford Crossing, DST is a high-risk, illiquid, private placement investment. Private placements or “Reg D” offerings can be highly volatile investments, as they are early-stage companies with limited information and are not bound to the same Securities Exchange Commision (“SEC”) disclosure requirements as public investment offerings.
Investors may consider this type of commercial real estate investment for the monthly returns and diversification offered, without any management duties. However, DSTs are highly illiquid, and are likely only suitable for investors who can afford to have their funds tied up for long holding periods.
The brokerage firms and financial advisors responsible for selling JLLX Milford Crossing, DST may be held responsible for any financial losses sustained by investors. Brokerage firms and financial advisors must consider their client’s risk tolerance prior to making recommendations, and cannot overconcentrate their customers’ accounts in any one investment product or market sector.
DSTs are considered “non-conventional investments” by the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority (“FINRA”). In Notice to Member 03-71 FINRA reminded brokers/financial advisors and broker-dealers of their specific requirements regarding the sale of non-conventional investments, including conducting appropriate due diligence, performing a reasonable-basis suitability analysis, performing customer specific suitability analysis for recommended transactions, and providing a balanced disclosure of the risks and rewards associated with a particular product, especially when selling to retail investors.

Potential conflicts of interest may arise when issuers incentivize brokers/investment advisors with substantial commissions to promote their financial products. A problem often associated with private placement investment recommendations, such as DSTs, is the high sales commissions brokers typically earn for selling these investments. A representative that recommends investments for the purpose of being compensated through increased commissions, and enriches themselves rather than benefiting the client, is violating securities laws.
To recover investment losses, you do not go through the traditional court system with a lawsuit. The only remedy is through a FINRA arbitration, a specific process designed for these types of disputes. This process involves presenting your case to a panel set by the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority (FINRA), not a courtroom. This approach is streamlined and focused on investment disputes, making it a suitable and effective way for investors to seek compensation for losses caused by financial advisors or brokerage firms.
FINRA (the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority) is a self-regulatory organization that oversees brokers and brokerages. In the event of a dispute between an investor and their financial advisor, investors can choose to file a FINRA arbitration claim. FINRA is overseen by the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”).
The arbitration process is designed to be much faster than the court system and allows both parties to present their case before a panel of arbitrators. The arbitrators will then decide how to resolve the dispute, including ordering the advisor to pay damages for any losses suffered by the investor.
