BR Diversified Industrial Portfolio 8, DST Delivers 100% Leased,
Five-Property Industrial Portfolio

NEW YORK, Aug. 5, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- Bluerock Value Exchange (BVEX), a national sponsor of 1031 Exchange and Delaware Statutory Trust (DST) investment programs with a 20+ year track record, today announced the launch of BR Diversified Industrial Portfolio 8, DST ("DIP 8"), an all-cash, unlevered DST offering seeking to raise approximately $58.4 million from accredited investors. DIP 8 is BVEX's 46th individual DST program and eighth consecutive industrial-focused offering, reflecting the firm's deep expertise in the industrial sector.

The launch of DIP 8 follows the successful completion of BR Diversified Industrial Portfolio 7 ("DIP 7"), reflecting continued strong demand for BVEX's industrial 1031 exchange platform. DIP 8 continues that momentum, offering investors the opportunity to secure a fully leased, income-producing industrial portfolio.

DIP 8 is comprised of five mission-critical industrial properties across Florida, Illinois, and Missouri, and totals approximately 460,000 rentable square feet of warehouse, distribution, and industrial outdoor storage. The portfolio features several attractive investment characteristics, including:

  • Credit-rated, large national tenants
  • 100% occupancy rate with long duration triple-net leases providing durable, predictable cash flows throughout the anticipated hold period
  • A weighted-aerage lease term of nearly 13 years
  • Potential for rent growth with current in-place rents 20% below current market rates

The DST currently distributes 4.8% on an annualized basis under its Master Lease structure, paid monthly to investors. DIP 8 is further structured to provide investors with meaningful exit flexibility at the conclusion of the hold period. Beneficial owners may elect to (i) contribute their interests into the Operating Partnership on a tax-deferred basis pursuant to a 721 UPREIT Exchange, (ii) redeem their interests for cash proceeds and complete a subsequent 1031 Exchange, or (iii) receive cash on a taxable basis — providing each investor the ability to pursue the exit path most aligned with their individual tax and estate planning objectives.

"We continue to see strong demand from 1031 exchange investors seeking income-producing industrial portfolios in high-growth markets, particularly in an all-cash structure that eliminates leverage risk," said Josh Hoffman, President of Bluerock Value Exchange. "DIP 8 checks all the boxes for our investors: a geographically diversified, fully leased portfolio anchored by long-tenured national tenants, with in-place rents averaging 20% below current market rates. The industrial sector is supported by powerful structural tailwinds — declining new supply, sustained demand, and projected rent growth well above the broader real estate market — and we believe this offering is exceptionally well-positioned to capitalize on that environment.1"
