Blackstone REIT Investors May Have Reason To Worry. Our BREIT Loss Attorneys Are Investigating Claims Of Losses

If you are an investor who has sustained serious losses in the $59B Blackstone Real Estate Income Trust (BREIT), contact Shepherd Smith Edwards and Kantas (investorlawyers.com) today. Our seasoned real estate investment trust (REIT) loss attorneys have been looking into this high-risk product since it first limited redemption requests starting in November 2022.

An annual report by BREIT stated that it paid out more to investors than it made in 2023—$2.8B in distributions, which was beyond its $2.7B of cash flows. The fund’s performance was impacted by requests by investors to get their money back. In February 2024, Blackstone REIT was able to fully pay all withdrawal requests since late 2022. For May 2024, its board decided to let the trust go beyond a 2% monthly limit order to satisfy such requests. Once a $70B behemoth, BREIT’s net asset value (NAV) has dropped significantly.

For the past year, Shepherd Smith Edwards and Kantas (investorlawyers.com) have been speaking to investors who suffered losses in Peakstone Realty (NYSE: PKST), which is a publicly registered real estate investment trust (REIT).
