STARWOOD REAL ESTATE INCOME TRUST, INC.
SUPPLEMENT NO. 3 DATED OCTOBER 17, 2022
TO THE PROSPECTUS DATED AUGUST 10, 2022
This prospectus supplement (“Supplement”) is part of and should be read in conjunction with the prospectus of Starwood Real Estate Income Trust, Inc., dated August 10, 2022 (as supplemented to date, the “Prospectus”). Unless otherwise defined herein, capitalized terms used in this Supplement shall have the same meanings as in the Prospectus. References herein to the “Company,” “we,” “us,” or “our” refer to Starwood Real Estate Income Trust, Inc. and its subsidiaries unless the context specifically requires otherwise.
The purposes of this Supplement are as follows:
| • | to provide an update on our portfolio; |
| • | to provide an update on our interest rate cap positions and interest rate swap agreements; |
| • | to disclose the transaction price for each class of our common stock as of November 1, 2022; |
| • | to disclose the calculation of our September 30, 2022 NAV per share for each class of our common stock; and |
| • | to provide an update on the status of our current public offering (the “Offering”). |
Portfolio Update
Our portfolio was constructed with an over allocation to residential and other asset types that can rapidly reprice income in an inflationary environment, which we believe will continue to perform through this challenging environment:
| • | Short lease duration asset classes such as multifamily, single-family rentals, self-storage and extended stay hotels comprise 73% of our real estate portfolio. |
| • | Industrial and floating-rate loans comprise an additional 18% of our real estate portfolio. |
| • | In total, approximately 91% of our real estate portfolio is allocated to asset classes performing well in an inflationary environment. |
In addition, our residential assets, which comprise approximately 70% of the Company’s real estate portfolio (48% market-rented multifamily, 17% affordable housing units and 5% single-family rental), continue to perform well and achieve blended (new and renewal) rent growth in excess of 13%. We own residential assets principally across affordable markets in the Southeast and Southwest United States with an average rent of approximately $1,400 per month. This is substantially cheaper than the median mortgage payment in the United States, which real estate service provider, Redfin, recently indicated was $2,559 per month, up 51% from a year earlier and $349 or 16% over the past eight weeks alone, given mortgage rates have risen to nearly 7.0%, double the level they were in January 2022. Unfortunately, high mortgage rates put homeownership out of reach for many aspiring buyers, but it does increase the demand for the rental housing that we own.

November 1, 2022 Transaction Price
The transaction price for each share class of our common stock for subscriptions accepted as of November 1, 2022 (and repurchases as of October 31, 2022) is as follows:
| | Transaction Price (per share) | |
Class S | | $ | 27.81 | |

September 30, 2022 NAV Per Share
NAV per share is calculated in accordance with the valuation guidelines that have been approved by our board of directors. Our NAV per share, which is updated as of the last calendar day of each month, is posted on our website at www.starwoodNAV.reit. Please refer to “Net Asset Value Calculation and Valuation Guidelines” in the Prospectus for information on how our NAV is determined. The Advisor is ultimately responsible for determining our NAV. All of our property investments are appraised annually by third party appraisal firms in accordance with our valuation guidelines and such appraisals are reviewed by our independent valuation advisor. We have included a breakdown of the components of total NAV and NAV per share as of September 30, 2022 along with the immediately preceding month.
Our total NAV presented in the following tables includes the NAV of our Class S, Class T, Class D, and Class I common shares, as well as partnership interests of the Operating Partnership held by parties other than the Company. The following table provides a breakdown of the major components of our NAV as of September 30, 2022 ($ and shares/units in thousands):

(1) | Stockholder servicing fees only apply to Class S, Class T and Class D shares. For purposes of NAV we recognize the stockholder servicing fee as a reduction of NAV on a monthly basis. Under accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”), we accrue the full cost of the stockholder servicing fee as an offering cost at the time we sell Class S, Class T and Class D shares. As of September 30, 2022, we have accrued under GAAP $425.9 million of stockholder servicing fees payable to the Dealer Manager related to the Class S, Class T and Class D shares sold. |

Set forth below are the weighted averages of the key assumptions in the discounted cash flow methodology used in the September 30, 2022 valuations, based on property types. Once we own more than one self-storage investment we will include the key assumptions for the property type.
Property Type | | Discount Rate | | | Exit Capitalization Rate | |
Multifamily | | 6.1% | | | 4.8% | |
Single-Family Rental | | 6.1% | | | 4.9% | |
Industrial | | 6.0% | | | 5.0% | |
Office | | 7.4% | | | 5.9% | |
Other | | 7.8% | | | 6.4% | |
For quarter-end months, these assumptions are determined by the independent valuation advisor or third party appraisers. In addition,
the independent valuation advisor reviews the assumptions from the third-party appraisals. The Advisor reviews the
assumptions from each of the appraisals regardless of who performs the work. A change in these assumptions would impact the
calculation of the value of our property investments. For example, assuming all other factors remain unchanged, the changes listed
below would result in the following effects on our investment values:
Input | | Hypothetical Change | | Multifamily Investment Values | | | Single-Family Rental Investment Values | | | Industrial Investment Values | | | Office Investment Values | | | Other Investment Values | |
Discount Rate | | 0.25% decrease | | +2.0% | | | +2.0% | | | +2.0% | | | +1.9% | | | +1.9% | |
(weighted average) | | 0.25% increase | | (1.9)% | | | (1.9)% | | | (2.0)% | | | (2.0)% | | | (1.9)% | |
Exit Capitalization Rate | | 0.25% decrease | | +3.6% | | | +3.5% | | | +3.7% | | | +2.9% | | | +2.5% | |
(weighted average) | | 0.25% increase | | (3.2)% | | | (3.2)% | | | (3.3)% | | | (2.8)% | | | (2.3)% | |
