What is Inspired Senior Living of Lake Orion DST?
Inspired Senior Living of Lake Orion DST is a real estate investment structured as a Delaware Statutory Trust (DST) and sponsored by Inspired Healthcare Capital, LLC. The DST was reportedly offered as part of a 1031 exchange strategy and aimed to raise over $27 million from investors, according to SEC filings.
Understanding the Drawbacks of 1031 DST Investments
While 1031 DSTs can provide tax benefits and passive income, they often carry significant disadvantages:
· No access to additional capital – If unexpected expenses arise, the trust has no way to raise funds.
· Lack of investor control – Management decisions are made by the sponsor, not the investors.
· Illiquidity – Investors may not be able to sell their interests before the trust’s assets are sold.
These risks make DSTs unsuitable for many retail investors, particularly those needing flexibility or capital preservation.
Were You Given a Suitable Investment Recommendation?
FINRA-registered brokers have a duty to conduct due diligence on investment products and to ensure that recommendations are suitable for their clients. This includes evaluating the investor’s financial situation, risk tolerance, and objectives.
If your financial advisor recommended this DST without fully disclosing the risks or confirming suitability, the firm may be liable for your losses.
How to Recover Losses Through FINRA Arbitration
If you were misled or sold an unsuitable investment, FINRA Dispute Resolution offers a legal pathway to recover damages. Arbitration is generally faster and less expensive than traditional litigation. The White Law Group has extensive experience handling FINRA arbitration claims on behalf of investors nationwide.

Frequently Asked Questions – Inspired Senior Living Lake Orion
Why are DSTs considered high-risk investments?
DSTs lack liquidity, provide limited investor control, and cannot raise additional capital once the offering closes—leaving investors vulnerable to issues like property damage, changing market conditions, or reduced rental income.
How can I tell if my broker violated FINRA rules?
If your broker failed to fully explain the risks or recommended the DST without evaluating your individual financial situation, it may be a breach of FINRA’s suitability standards.
What does it cost to pursue a FINRA arbitration claim?
Most securities law firms, including The White Law Group, work on a contingency basis, meaning you generally owe no fees unless they recover funds for you.
What is the 2025 status of Inspired Senior Living of Lake Orion DST?
As of July 2025, the sponsor halted new offerings and distributions, is under SEC review, and has transferred management responsibilities to third-party operators.
