| Organization and Business Purpose | Organization and Business Purpose Blackstone Real Estate Income Trust, Inc. (“BREIT” or the “Company”) invests primarily in stabilized, income-generating commercial real estate in the United States and, to a lesser extent, outside the United States. The Company to a lesser extent invests in real estate debt investments. The Company is the sole general partner and majority limited partner of BREIT Operating Partnership L.P., a Delaware limited partnership (“BREIT OP”). BREIT Special Limited Partner L.P. (the “Special Limited Partner”), a wholly owned subsidiary of Blackstone Inc. (together with its affiliates, “Blackstone”), owns a special limited partner interest in BREIT OP. Substantially all of the Company’s business is conducted through BREIT OP. The Company and BREIT OP are externally managed by BX REIT Advisors L.L.C. (the “Adviser”). The Adviser is part of the real estate group of Blackstone, a leading global investment manager. The Company was formed on November 16, 2015 as a Maryland corporation and qualifies as a real estate investment trust (“REIT”) for U.S. federal income tax purposes. The Company registered an offering with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) of up to $60.0 billion in shares of common stock, consisting of up to $48.0 billion in any combination of Class I, Class S-2, Class D-2, and Class T-2 shares in its primary offering and up to $12.0 billion in any combination of Class I, Class S, Class S-2, Class D, Class D-2, Class T and Class T-2 shares pursuant to its distribution reinvestment plan, which the Company began using to offer shares of its common stock in September 2025 (the “Current Offering”). The share classes have different upfront selling commissions, dealer manager fees and ongoing stockholder servicing fees. Class S, D, and T shares of the Company's common stock are only available to existing holders of such classes pursuant to the Company’s distribution reinvestment plan. In addition to the Current Offering, the Company is conducting private offerings of Class I, Class C and Class F shares to certain feeder or other vehicles that hold the Company’s shares and other assets, which in turn sell interests in themselves to other investors as described in the Company’s prospectus. Further, the Company is conducting private offerings of Class I, Class S-2, Class D-2, Class T-2, Class L, and Class L-2 shares to certain accredited investors through certain participating broker dealers. All such private offerings are or will be, as applicable, exempt from the registration provisions of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), by virtue of Section 4(a)(2) and/or Regulation D or Regulation S promulgated thereunder. The Company intends to continue selling shares in the Current Offering and private offerings on a monthly basis. As of June 30, 2026, the Company owned, in whole or in part, 4,530 properties and 63,081 single family rental homes. The Company currently operates in eight reportable segments: Rental Housing, Industrial, Data Centers, Net Lease, Office, Hospitality, Retail, and Investments in Real Estate Debt. Rental Housing includes multifamily and other types of rental housing such as student, affordable, manufactured and single family rental housing. Net Lease includes the real estate assets of The Bellagio Las Vegas, The Cosmopolitan of Las Vegas, and the Company’s unconsolidated investment in a Net Lease platform. Financial results by segment are reported in Note 16 — Segment Reporting. The Company previously had nine reportable segments. In May 2026, the Company completed the disposition of all properties in its Self Storage segment. The Company determined that the disposition did not represent a strategic shift that has had, or is expected to have, a major effect on the Company’s operations or financial results, and therefore, did not meet the criteria to be classified as discontinued operations. Accordingly, the results of the Self Storage segment are included in continuing operations for all periods presented. In November 2025, the Company, through BREIT OP, commenced a program (the “DST Program”) to issue and sell beneficial interests (“DST Interests”) in specific Delaware statutory trusts (the “DSTs”) holding real properties (the “DST Properties”) through private offerings (the “DST Program”). These private offerings are exempt from registration under the Securities Act. As of June 30, 2026, $111.2 million in net offering proceeds were raised through the DST Program, which are included in Non-controlling Interests Attributable to Consolidated Subsidiaries on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. Under the DST Program, each DST Property may be sourced from our real properties or acquired from third parties, will be held in a separate DST, and will be leased by the DST to a wholly-owned subsidiary of BREIT OP under a master lease agreement. In accordance with the master lease, we are responsible for subleasing the DST Properties and for covering all costs associated with operating the underlying DST Properties. Each master lease agreement will be guaranteed by BREIT OP, which will retain a fair market value purchase option (the “FMV Option”), giving BREIT OP the right, but not the obligation, to acquire the DST Interests in the applicable DST from the DST investors any time during a defined period in exchange for BREIT OP units or, in certain cases, a combination of BREIT OP units and cash. After a one-year holding period, investors who acquire BREIT OP units pursuant to the FMV Option have a right to cause BREIT OP to redeem all or a portion of their OP units for, at our sole discretion, shares of our common stock, cash, or a combination of both.
