Senior Living of Hamilton DST. Featured by top securities fraud attorneys, The White Law Group.

Investment Losses in Inspired Senior Living of Hamilton DST?

If you’ve experienced unexpected losses with Inspired Senior Living of Hamilton DST, you may have legal options. The White Law Group is filing FINRA arbitration claims involving brokerage firms that may have improperly sold this high-risk investment to unsuspecting investors.

Update: January–February 2026 Bankruptcy & 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 (IHC) 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.

July 2025: Inspired Healthcare Capital Suspends Distributions

Adding to investor concerns, the sponsor, IHC, announced in August 2025 that it will not be paying dividends for the month and has retained outside financial advisors and attorneys to review “strategic alternatives.” This follows its July 2025 suspension of new offerings and distributions, reportedly amid an SEC review. For Inspired Senior Living Hamilton DST investors, this means the already illiquid investment has become even more problematic, leaving retirees and income-seeking investors without expected monthly payments.

Background on Inspired Senior Living of Hamilton DST

Inspired Senior Living of Hamilton DST is a Delaware Statutory Trust created by Inspired Healthcare Capital, LLC. Designed for use in 1031 exchange transactions, it was marketed as a passive real estate investment. In 2022, the sponsor filed a Form D with the SEC, disclosing a capital raise of over $56 million, with more than 6% allocated to fees and commissions. While these offerings can be appealing for their tax deferral benefits, the risks are often underemphasized.

Understanding the Hidden Risks of 1031 DSTs

  • No ability to raise capital post-closing: If maintenance or emergency costs arise, there’s no mechanism to raise more funds.
  • Limited investor control: Ownership is passive, with no decision-making power—even during downturns.
  • Illiquidity: Selling your interest early is often not an option, which may pose a problem if you need access to your funds.

These risks make 1031 DSTs potentially unsuitable for many retail investors, particularly retirees.

Could Your Broker Be at Fault?

Brokers and financial advisors are required to recommend investments that are suitable for your financial profile and to conduct adequate due diligence before making any recommendations. If your broker failed to properly explain the risks or failed to consider your personal financial goals, they—and their firm—could be held liable in a FINRA arbitration claim.
