Hines


Sponsor Overview

Hines is a 67-year-old Houston-based global real estate investment, development, and management firm founded by Gerald D. Hines. With $95B+ AUM across 30+ countries, Hines is one of the world's largest privately-held real estate firms. The Hines Real Estate Exchange (HREX) DST platform launched in 2020-2022 with multiple multifamily DSTs (HREX Multifamily I-IV, etc.), but ZERO DSTs have reached full-cycle exit as of 2026. All offerings remain actively held. Hines' institutional scale, global platform, and 67-year track record in direct real estate investment are uncontested, but their DST product is relatively new and unproven at the full-cycle level.

The information, views, and opinions expressed (including those contained in any analyst notes or commentary) reflect the perspective of the author at the time of publication, are subject to change without notice, and should not be relied upon as the basis for any investment decision.

The presence of a sponsor profile on this page does not indicate any business, financial, ownership, or contractual affiliation between Baker 1031 Investments and the sponsor, nor does it constitute an endorsement of the sponsor or any of its offerings.

Any performance data shown on this page — including, without limitation, full-cycle results, internal rate of return (IRR), equity multiple, average annual return, hold period, cash-on-cash return, or distribution history — is self-reported by the sponsor and sourced from the sponsor's Private Placement Memorandums (PPMs) and related offering documents.

Although we make every effort to accurately transcribe sponsor-reported figures, errors are possible. Please verify any figure directly with the sponsor before relying on it.

Past performance is not indicative of future results. Performance data reflects outcomes of prior offerings and should not be expected to recur in current or future investments, which may result in partial or total loss of principal.

Before making any investment decision, you should consult with your own qualified financial, legal, and tax advisors and carefully review all relevant offering documents, including the applicable PPM in its entirety. Investments offered by sponsors profiled on this site involve risk, including the potential loss of principal, and may not be suitable for all investors.
