Inspired Senior Living of San Marcos DST: Investment Loss Investigation
The White Law Group is filing claims on behalf of investors in Inspired Healthcare Capital involving offerings such as Inspired Senior Living of San Marcos DST.
Update: February 2026 Bankruptcy and other Developments
Inspired Healthcare Capital’s financial distress escalated in early 2026. On January 15, 2026, the company informed investors and financial advisors that independent managers had assumed control of several operating and DST-related entities, alongside the appointment of a restructuring advisor from Ankura Consulting Group and outside bankruptcy counsel. Investor distributions were suspended, with no restart date provided.
One month later, in February 2026, Inspired Healthcare Capital and more than 160 affiliates formally filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy in the Northern District of Texas. The filings report estimated liabilities ranging from $1 billion to $10 billion and mark a significant turning point for investors evaluating potential recovery options amid ongoing regulatory and legal scrutiny.

About the Offering – Inspired Senior Living of San Marcos DST
Sponsored by Inspired Healthcare Capital, this private placement offering was created as a Delaware Statutory Trust (DST) in 2023 to acquire and operate senior housing real estate. According to a Form D filed with the SEC, the total offering amount was $30,992,485.
The DST was structured to raise capital from accredited investors nationwide, and it listed a minimum investment of $50,000. Estimated sales commissions and fees were nearly 9%, including a Dealer Manager Fee, Broker-Dealer Allowance, Wholesaling Fee, and other selling costs.
Proceeds from the offering reportedly included $805,000 in acquisition fees and more than $1.38 million in bridge financing costs paid to affiliated parties. The sponsor also received nearly $465,000 for organizational and marketing expenses.
Understanding the Risks of DST Investments
Although DSTs may offer tax deferral benefits under IRC Section 1031 and passive income opportunities, they are often illiquid and high-risk. Investors are usually unable to sell or exit early. If property performance declines or tenants default, the trust’s income distributions could be reduced or eliminated altogether.
Because these investments are generally available only to accredited investors, they often bypass the scrutiny and protections of public markets. Inadequate disclosures or unsuitable recommendations by financial professionals may result in significant investor losses.
Were You Sold an Unsuitable DST Investment?
Broker-dealers have an obligation to conduct adequate due diligence and ensure that investments they recommend are suitable based on the investor’s objectives, risk tolerance, and financial profile. Under the FINRA Arbitration process, investors may pursue claims against firms for failing to meet their obligations.
If your financial advisor recommended Inspired Senior Living of San Marcos DST and you experienced losses, you may have a claim for recovery.
Why Choose Individual Arbitration Over a Class Action?
While a class action groups together investors with smaller claims, individual FINRA arbitration may offer a better path for investors with substantial losses. With a focused legal strategy, investors could pursue full recovery of damages tailored to their specific circumstances.
