Our Foundation
In 2012, when our founder and co-CEO, Louis Rogers, partnered with colleagues he respected from prior firms, together, they seized their combined expertise across multiple fields to develop a new “investors-first” business model. Shaped by steadfast integrity and entrepreneurial gumption, Capital Square began as a Section 1031/DST sponsor but has since grown to be a diversified real estate manager, operator and developer.
Although Delaware statutory trusts (DSTs) remain the foundation of our business, we have rapidly diversified with numerous development projects, qualified opportunity zone funds, and a real estate investment trust (REIT) . From the beginning, Capital Square has reinvested most of its profits into the business. This has accelerated our growth to over $6 billion in assets under management (AUM) and driven our success as a top-tier DST sponsor.
