Bluerock Value Exchange Fully Subscribes $66 Million Class A Multifamily DST in Tampa, Florida
On September 10, 2025, Bluerock Value Exchange (BVEX) announced the successful full subscription of its $66 million offering for the BR Amira, DST investment. As a seasoned national sponsor of 1031 exchange and Delaware Statutory Trust (DST) programs, Bluerock has a long history of facilitating real estate investments aimed at maximizing returns for investors. In fact, the company has already sponsored more than $2.8 billion in full-cycle and ongoing 1031 exchange programs over the last two decades.
A Timely Investment Opportunity
The multifamily housing sector is currently considered a lucrative area for investment. Josh Hoffman, President of BVEX, indicated that the timing could not be better for entering the apartment market. Factors contributing to this favorable outlook include forecasted increases in rent, a significant undersupply of new housing units, and a record gap between the high costs of homeownership and renting. All of these elements foster a fertile environment for strong renter demand.
Amira, located in a prime area of Tampa, Florida, comes equipped with high growth potential driven by multiple economic factors. This newly renovated class A apartment community is strategically positioned next to Tampa International Airport, providing investors easy access to key thoroughfares as well as essential retail amenities. The community offers an excellent walkability score to nearby employment centers, creating nearly 200,000 job opportunities in the vicinity, and is just minutes away from the beaches.
Ideal for Cashflow and Investment Growth
With a dual focus on providing monthly cash flow and the potential for significant capital appreciation, Amira is engineered to meet the evolving needs of investors. The lack of new apartment competition due to infill barriers further amplifies its investment attractiveness. Investors can benefit from a promising rent-growth forecast and the ongoing high job and population growth trends in the Tampa Metro area.
In addition to cash flow, the DST program presents multiple exit strategy options for investors, which include 721 exchanges (UPREIT) or subsequent 1031 exchanges, providing significant flexibility depending on market conditions.
