Walk DST Lawsuit and Investor Complaints

Walk DST (Versity Investment) Investigation

Have you suffered losses in Walk DST?
The White Law Group is investigating potential Walk DST lawsuits and investor complaints involving brokerage firms that may have unsuitably recommended this high-risk Delaware Statutory Trust (DST) sponsored by Versity Investments.

Investors have raised concerns about illiquidity, high commissions, and undisclosed risks associated with Versity DSTs. If your advisor failed to properly explain these risks or ignored your investment profile, you may have grounds to pursue a Walk DST complaint or FINRA arbitration claim.

What Is Walk DST (Versity Investment)?

Walk DST is a private placement Delaware Statutory Trust sponsored by Versity Investments (formerly Crew) and commonly sold to investors completing 1031 exchanges.

According to the Form D , the company reportedly raised approximately $24.6 million in a 2022 Regulation D offering. Like many DST investments, this one was sold through brokerage firms that earned substantial upfront commissions.

Walk DST Risks and Common Investor Complaints

Many Walk DST complaints stem from risks investors allege were downplayed or inadequately disclosed, including:

• Illiquidity – No active secondary market and limited exit options

• High Fees & Commissions – Broker compensation often exceeds 9%

• Loss of Principal Risk – Property or market underperformance

• No Investor Control – Investors cannot influence management decisions

• Concentration Risk – Often tied to a single asset or strategy

• Tax Risk – Failure to meet 1031 exchange requirements may trigger tax consequences

Unsuitable Investment Recommendation?

Under SEC Regulation Best Interest (Reg BI) and FINRA suitability rules, brokers must recommend investments that align with an investor’s:

• Risk tolerance

• Liquidity needs

• Age and net worth

• Investment objectives

If a DST was recommended despite being illiquid, speculative, or inconsistent with your financial goals, you may have grounds for a Walk DST lawsuit or arbitration claim against the brokerage firm.

Walk DST Lawsuit Options: FINRA Arbitration vs. Class Action

Most investors pursuing a Walk DST lawsuit do so through FINRA arbitration, not class actions.

• FINRA Arbitration

  • Primary recovery method for DST losses

  • Faster than court litigation

  • Common for losses over $100,000

• Class Action Lawsuits

  • Rare for DST investments

  • Typically used for smaller, uniform claims

Filing a Walk DST Complaint or Lawsuit

If you suffered losses in Walk DST, you may be able to recover damages through a FINRA arbitration claim against the brokerage firm that sold the investment.
