What's the deal? NexPointDealroom has a profile for this one. Try Dealroom →, a Dallas-based alternative investment firm, on July 14, 2026, launched NexPoint Lodging II DST, a Delaware Statutory Trust valued at about $81.6 million. It is the firm's second hospitality-focused DST and its 34th DST offering overall.

What's inside? The trust holds two hotels: the Homewood Suites Hartford South – Glastonbury in Connecticut, an extended-stay property, and the Courtyard by MarriottDealroom has a profile for this one. Try Dealroom → Bradenton–Sarasota Riverfront in Florida, a select-service hotel on the Manatee River.

Why the mix? The two properties sit in the Hartford, Connecticut MSA and the North Port–Bradenton–Sarasota MSA, spanning extended-stay and traditional travelers. NexPoint frames the geographic and customer spread as a way to reduce market concentration risk.

What's the plan? The Homewood Suites completed renovations to guest rooms, social spaces, and amenities in May 2024, upgrades NexPoint expects to lower operating costs. Planned improvements at the Courtyard aim to refresh guest rooms and common areas to keep the property competitive.

Who runs them? Both hotels will be operated by Dreamscape Hospitality, a Dallas-based manager that oversees more than 30 hotels across major brands.

The track record: NexPoint has sponsored DST offerings for nearly a decade, executing over $3.2 billion in acquisitions across multifamily housing, commercial storage, and life sciences. Lodging II extends that platform into hospitality.

The signal: DSTs are a common vehicle for accredited investors seeking real estate exposure, and NexPoint's move into hotels signals continued appetite for hospitality assets. The dual-market, dual-brand structure reflects a hedged bet on lodging demand across distinct US regions.
