Exhibit 10.9

ESCROW AGREEMENT

THIS ESCROW AGREEMENT dated as of September 29, 2017 (this “Agreement”), is entered into among Starwood Capital, L.L.C. (the “Dealer Manager”), Starwood Real Estate Income Trust, Inc. (the “Company”) and UMB Bank, N.A., as escrow agent (the “Escrow Agent”).

WHEREAS, the Company intends to raise funds from Investors (as defined below) pursuant to a public offering (the “Offering”) of the sale of Class T, Class S, Class D and Class I shares of common stock, par value $0.01 per share (the “Securities”), by offering and selling: (a) up to $4,000,000,000 in shares of the Securities in the primary offering; and (b) up to $1,000,000,000 in shares of the Securities pursuant to the Company’s distribution reinvestment plan (the “DRP Securities”), pursuant to the registration statement on Form S-11 of the Company (File No. 333-[            ]) (as amended, the “Registration Statement”);

WHEREAS, the Company has agreed that the subscription price paid by Investors (as defined below) for Securities promptly will be refunded to such Investors if at least $150,000,000 of gross offering proceeds, including Securities sold to directors and officers of the Company, Starwood REIT Advisors, L.L.C. and their respective affiliates (the “Minimum Offering”), has not been raised from the sale of shares of the Company’s common stock within one year from the date that the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) initially declares the Registration Statement effective;

WHEREAS, the Company desires to establish an escrow account with the Escrow Agent for funds contributed by the Investors (as defined below) with the Escrow Agent in accordance with the Registration Statement, to be held for the benefit of the Investors and the Company until such time as aggregate subscriptions received from all Investors equals the Minimum Offering, in each case in accordance with the terms and subject to the conditions of this Agreement; and

WHEREAS, the Escrow Agent is willing to accept appointment as escrow agent only for the express duties set forth herein.

WHEREAS, the Company has directed the Escrow Agent to engage DST Systems, Inc. (the “Transfer Agent”) to receive, examine for “good order” and facilitate subscriptions into the Escrow Account as further described herein and to act as record keeper, maintaining on behalf of the Escrow Agent the ownership records for the Escrow Account. In so acting the Transfer Agent shall be acting solely in the capacity of agent for the Escrow Agent and not in any capacity on behalf of the Company, nor shall the Transfer Agent have any interest other than that provided in this Agreement in assets in Transfer Agent’s possession as the agent of the Escrow Agent.

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the foregoing and of the mutual covenants and agreements contained herein, the parties hereto, intending to be legally bound, hereby agree as follows:

1. Proceeds to be Escrowed. On or before the date on which the Offering commences, the Company shall direct the Escrow Agent to establish an deposit account in the name of the Escrow Agent to be invested in accordance with Section 7 hereof (including such abbreviations as are required for the Escrow Agent’s systems) (the “Escrow Account”). This Agreement shall be effective as of the date first written above. The escrow period shall commence upon the effectiveness of this Agreement and shall continue until the Termination Date (as defined in Section 5) (the “Escrow Period”).

All checks, wire transfers and other funds received from persons submitting subscriptions for the purchase of Securities (“Investors”) in payment for the Securities (“Investor Funds”) will be delivered to the Escrow Agent within one (1) business day following the day upon which such Investor Funds are received by the Company or its agents, and shall, upon receipt by the Escrow Agent, be retained in escrow by the Escrow Agent and invested as stated herein. During the term of this Agreement, the Company or its agents shall cause all checks received by and made payable to it in payment for the Securities to be endorsed for favor of the Escrow Agent and delivered to the Escrow Agent for deposit in the Escrow Account.

The Escrow Agent shall have no duty to make any disbursement, investment or other use of Investor Funds until and unless it has good and collected funds. If any checks deposited in the Escrow Account are returned or prove uncollectible after the funds represented thereby have been released by the Escrow Agent, then the Company shall promptly reimburse the Escrow Agent for any and all costs incurred for such, upon request, and the Escrow Agent shall deliver the returned checks to the Company. The Escrow Agent shall be under no duty or responsibility to enforce collection of any check delivered to it hereunder. The Escrow Agent reserves the right to deny, suspend or terminate participation by an Investor to the extent the Escrow Agent deems it advisable or necessary to comply with applicable laws or to eliminate practices that are not consistent with the purposes of the Offering.

2. Investors. During the Escrow Period, Investors will be instructed by the Dealer Manager or any soliciting dealers retained by the Dealer Manager in connection with the Offering (the “Soliciting Dealers”) to remit the purchase price in the form of checks, drafts, wires, Automated Clearing House or money orders (each an “Instrument of Payment” and, collectively, the “Instruments of Payment”) payable to the order of, or wired in favor of, as applicable, “UMB Bank, N.A., as escrow agent for Starwood Real Estate Income Trust, Inc.” Any Instrument of Payment made payable to, or wired in favor of, a party other than the Escrow Agent shall be returned to the Dealer Manager or Soliciting Dealer that submitted the check. By 12:00 p.m. (EST) of the next business day following the receipt of Instruments of Payment from the Offering, the Company or the Dealer Manager, as applicable, shall furnish the Escrow Agent with a list of the Investors who have paid for the Securities showing the name, address, tax identification number, the amount of Securities subscribed for purchase and the amount paid. The information comprising the identity of Investors shall be provided to the Escrow Agent in substantially the format set forth in the list of Investors attached hereto as Exhibit A (the “List of Investors”).

When a Soliciting Dealer’s internal supervisory procedures are conducted at the site at which the subscription agreement and the check for the purchase of Securities were initially

2

received by Soliciting Dealer from the subscriber, such Soliciting Dealer shall transmit the subscription agreement and such check to the Escrow Agent by the end of the next business day following receipt of the check for the purchase of Securities and subscription agreement. When, pursuant to such Soliciting Dealer’s internal supervisory procedures, such Soliciting Dealer’s final internal supervisory procedures are conducted at a different location (the “Final Review Office”), such Soliciting Dealer shall transmit the check for the purchase of Securities and subscription agreement to the Final Review Office by noon of the next business day following Soliciting Dealer’s receipt of the subscription agreement and the check for the purchase of Securities. The Final Review Office will, by the end of the next business day following its receipt of the subscription agreement and the check for the purchase of Securities, forward both the subscription agreement and check to the Escrow Agent. If the Escrow Agent is notified in writing that any subscription agreement solicited by a Soliciting Dealer has been rejected by the Dealer Manager or the Company, then the subscription agreement and check for the purchase of Securities will be returned to the rejected subscriber within ten (10) business days from the date of rejection.

All Investor Funds deposited in the Escrow Account shall not be subject to any liens or charges by the Company or the Escrow Agent, or judgments or creditors’ claims against the Company, until and unless released to the Company as hereinafter provided. The Company understands and agrees that the Company shall not be entitled to any Investor Funds on deposit in the Escrow Account and no such funds shall become the property of the Company, or any other entity except as released to the Company pursuant to Section 3 hereto. The Escrow Agent will not use the information provided to it by the Company for any purpose other than to fulfill its obligations as Escrow Agent hereunder. The Company and the Escrow Agent will treat all Investor information as confidential (“Confidential Information”). If the Escrow Agent is requested or required (including by law or by oral questions, interrogatories, requests for information or documents in legal proceedings, subpoena, civil investigative demand, or other process) to disclose any Confidential Information, the Escrow Agent shall provide the other parties hereto with prompt written notice of the request or requirement, to the extent permitted by applicable law, so that the other parties (at it sole expense) may seek a protective order or other appropriate remedy or waive compliance with this Section. If the Escrow Agent is compelled—in the absence of a protective order or other remedy or the receipt of a waiver from the other parties—to disclose Confidential Information, the Escrow Agent or any of its representatives may without liability disclose the Confidential Information that is required but must exercise commercially reasonable efforts (at the sole expense of the other parties) to preserve the confidential treatment of the Confidential Information. Despite the foregoing, however, nothing in this Agreement prohibits, prevents, or limits the Escrow Agent or any of its representatives from disclosing any Confidential Information, without notice to or consent of the other parties, if the disclosure is made to a supervisory or governmental authority or a self-regulatory organization in the course of any examination, inquiry, or audit of the Dealer Manager or Company. The Escrow Agent shall not be required to accept any Investor Funds which are not accompanied by the information on the List of Investors.

3. Disbursement of Funds. Once proceeds from the sale of Securities equal the Minimum Offering, the Company shall notify the Escrow Agent of the same in writing. Further, if the Minimum Offering has not been sold on or prior to the Termination Date (as defined in Section 4),

3

the Company shall notify the Escrow Agent in writing of such. At the end of the third business day following the Termination Date, the Escrow Agent shall notify the Company of the amount of the Investor Funds received.

If the Minimum Offering has been obtained on or before the Termination Date, the Company shall promptly notify the Escrow Agent and, upon receiving such notice and written instructions from the Company’s Chief Executive Officer, President or Chief Financial Officer to disburse the Investor Funds, the Escrow Agent shall disburse to the Company, by check or wire transfer, the funds in the Escrow Account, except for amounts payable by the Company to the Escrow Agent pursuant to Exhibit B to this Agreement that remain outstanding. The Escrow Agent agrees that funds in the Escrow Account shall not be released to the Company until and unless the Escrow Agent receives written instructions to release the funds from the Company’s Chief Executive Officer, President or Chief Financial Officer.

If the Company notifies the Escrow Agent in writing that the Minimum Offering has not been obtained prior to the Termination Date, the Escrow Agent shall promptly following the Termination Date, but in no event more than ten (10) business days after the Termination Date, refund to each Investor by check, funds deposited in the Escrow Account, or shall return the Instruments of Payment delivered to Escrow Agent if such instruments have not been processed for collection prior to such time, directly to each Investor at the address provided on the List of Investors, it being agreed and understood that, notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein or elsewhere, the only transactional fees that shall be incurred by the Company following notice to the Escrow Agent that the Minimum Offering has not been obtained prior to the Termination Date shall be the transactions fees set forth on Exhibit B relating to each Investor’s refund of fund deposited in the Escrow Account. Included in the remittance shall be a proportionate share of the income earned in the account allocable to each Investor’s investment in accordance with the terms and conditions specified herein, except that in the case of Investors who have not provided an executed Form W-9 or substitute Form W-9 (or the applicable substitute Form W-8 for foreign investors), the Escrow Agent shall withhold the applicable percentage of the earnings attributable to those Investors in accordance with Internal Revenue Service (“IRS”) regulations. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Escrow Agent shall not be required to remit any payments until funds represented by such payments have been collected by the Escrow Agent.

If the Escrow Agent receives written notice from the Company that the Company intends to reject an Investor’s subscription, the Escrow Agent shall pay to the applicable Investor(s), within a reasonable time not to exceed ten (10) business days after receiving notice of the rejection, by first class United States Mail at the address provided on the List of Investors, or at such other address as shall be furnished to the Escrow Agent by the Investor in writing, all collected sums paid by the Investor for Securities and received by the Escrow Agent, together with the interest earned on such Investor Funds (determined in accordance with the terms and conditions specified herein).

4. Term of Escrow. The “Termination Date,” shall be the earliest of: (i) the date the Company notifies the Escrow Agent in writing of the close of business on the one-year anniversary of the date the Registration Statement was initially declared effective by the SEC, if the Minimum

4

Offering has not been obtained prior to such date; (ii) the date on which all funds held in the Escrow Account are distributed to the Company or to Investors pursuant to Section 3 and the Company has informed the Escrow Agent in writing to close the Escrow Account; (iii) the date the Escrow Agent receives written notice from the Company that it is abandoning the sale of the Securities or that the Offering is terminating; and (iv) the date the Escrow Agent receives notice from the SEC or any other federal regulatory authority that a stop or similar order has been issued with respect to the Registration Statement and has remained in effect for at least twenty (20) days.

5. Duty and Liability of the Escrow Agent. The Escrow Agent shall have no duties or responsibilities other than those expressly set forth in this Agreement, and no implied duties or obligations shall be read into this Agreement against the Escrow Agent. The sole duty of the Escrow Agent shall be to receive Investor Funds and hold them subject to release, in accordance herewith, and the Escrow Agent shall be under no duty to determine whether the Company or the Dealer Manager is complying with requirements of this Agreement, the Offering or applicable securities or other laws in tendering the Investor Funds to the Escrow Agent.

No other agreement entered into between the parties, or any of them, shall be considered as adopted or binding, in whole or in part, upon the Escrow Agent notwithstanding that any such other agreement may be referred to herein or deposited with the Escrow Agent or the Escrow Agent may have knowledge thereof, including specifically but without limitation, the Registration Statement or any other document relating to the Offering (including the subscription agreement and exhibits thereto), and the Escrow Agent’s rights and responsibilities shall be governed solely by this Agreement.

The Escrow Agent shall not be responsible for or be required to enforce any of the terms or conditions of the Registration Statement or any other document relating to the Offering (including the subscription agreement and exhibits thereto) or other agreement between the Company and any other party. The Escrow Agent may conclusively rely upon and shall be protected in acting upon any statement, certificate, notice, request, consent, order or other document believed by it to be genuine and to have been signed or presented by the proper party or parties. The Escrow Agent shall have no duty or liability to verify any such statement, certificate, notice, request, consent, order or other document, and its sole responsibility shall be to act only as expressly set forth in this Agreement. The Escrow Agent shall be under no obligation to institute or defend any action, suit or proceeding in connection with this Agreement unless first indemnified to its satisfaction. The Escrow Agent may consult counsel of its own choice with respect to any question arising under this Agreement and the Escrow Agent shall not be liable for any action taken or omitted in good faith upon advice of such counsel. Other than DST Systems, Inc. the Escrow Agent is not authorized to assign or delegate any duties hereunder to its agents or other third parties.

The Escrow Agent shall not be liable for any action taken or omitted by it in good faith except to the extent that a court of competent jurisdiction determines that the Escrow Agent’s gross negligence or willful misconduct was the primary cause of loss. The Escrow Agent is acting solely as escrow agent hereunder and owes no duties, covenants or obligations, fiduciary or otherwise, to any other person by reason of this Agreement, except as otherwise stated herein, and no implied duties, covenants or obligations, fiduciary or otherwise, shall be read into this Agreement against the Escrow Agent.

5

If any disagreement between any of the parties to this Agreement, or between any of them and any other person, including any Investor, resulting in adverse claims or demands being made in connection with the matters covered by this Agreement, or if the Escrow Agent is in doubt as to what action it should take hereunder, the Escrow Agent may, at its option, refuse to comply with any claims or demands on it, or refuse to take any other action hereunder, so long as such disagreement continues or such doubt exists, and in any such event, the Escrow Agent shall not be or become liable in any way or to any person for its failure or refusal to act, and the Escrow Agent shall be entitled to continue so to refrain from acting until (i) the rights of all interested parties shall have been fully and finally adjudicated by a court of competent jurisdiction, or (ii) all differences shall have been adjudged and all doubt resolved by agreement among all of the interested persons, and the Escrow Agent shall have been notified thereof in writing signed by all such persons. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Escrow Agent may in its discretion obey the order, judgment, decree or levy of any court, whether with or without jurisdiction and the Escrow Agent is hereby authorized in its sole discretion to comply with and obey any such orders, judgments, decrees or levies. If any controversy should arise with respect to this Agreement, the Escrow Agent shall have the right, at its option, to institute an interpleader action in any court of competent jurisdiction to determine the rights of the parties. IN NO EVENT SHALL THE ESCROW AGENT BE LIABLE, DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY, FOR ANY SPECIAL, INDIRECT OR CONSEQUENTIAL LOSSES OR DAMAGES OF ANY KIND WHATSOEVER (INCLUDING WITHOUT LIMITATION LOST PROFITS), EVEN IF THE ESCROW AGENT HAS BEEN ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH LOSSES OR DAMAGES AND REGARDLESS OF THE FORM OF ACTION.

The parties hereto agree that the Escrow Agent has no role in the preparation of the Registration Statement or any other document related to the Offering (including the subscription agreement and exhibits thereto) and makes no representations or warranties with respect to the information contained therein or omitted therefrom. The Escrow Agent shall have no obligation, duty or liability with respect to compliance with any federal or state securities, disclosure or tax laws concerning the Registration Statement or any other document related to the Offering (including the subscription agreement and exhibits thereto) or the issuance, offering or sale of the Securities. The Escrow Agent shall have no duty or obligation to monitor the application and use of the Investor Funds once transferred to the Company, that being the sole obligation and responsibility of the Company.

6. Escrow Agent’s Fee. The Escrow Agent shall be entitled to compensation for its services as stated in the fee schedule attached hereto as Exhibit B, which compensation shall be paid by the Company. The fee agreed upon for the services rendered hereunder is intended as full compensation for the Escrow Agent’s services as contemplated by this Agreement; provided, however, that if (i) the conditions for the disbursement of funds under this Agreement are not fulfilled, (ii) the Escrow Agent renders any material service not contemplated in this Agreement, (iii) there is any assignment of interest in the subject matter of this Agreement, (iv) there is any material modification hereof, (v) if any material controversy arises hereunder, or (vi) the Escrow Agent is made a party to any litigation pertaining to this Agreement, or the subject matter hereof,

6

then the Escrow Agent shall be reasonably compensated for such extraordinary services and reimbursed for all costs and expenses, including reasonable attorneys’ fees, occasioned by any delay, controversy, litigation or event, and the same shall be recoverable from the Company. The Company’s obligations under this Section 6 shall survive the resignation or removal of the Escrow Agent and the assignment or termination of this Agreement.

7. Investment of Investor Funds. The Investor Funds shall be deposited in the Escrow Account in accordance with Section 1. The Escrow Agent is hereby directed to invest all funds received under this Agreement, including principal and interest in UMB Money Market Special, a bank money market deposit account or as otherwise set forth in written investment instruction provided by the Company. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Investor Funds shall not be invested in anything other than “Short Term Investments” in compliance with Rule 15c2-4 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. The following are not permissible investments: (a) money market mutual funds; (b) corporate debt or equity securities; (c) repurchase agreements; (d) banker’s acceptance; (e) commercial paper; and (f) municipal securities. Any interest received by the Escrow Agent with respect to the Investor Funds, including reinvested interest shall become part of the Investor Funds, and shall be disbursed pursuant to Section 3.

The Escrow Agent shall be entitled to sell or redeem any such investments as necessary to make any payments or distributions required under this Agreement. The Escrow Agent shall have no responsibility or liability for any loss which may result from any investment made pursuant to this Agreement, or for any loss resulting from the sale of such investment. The parties acknowledge that the Escrow Agent is not providing investment supervision, recommendations, or advice.

On or prior to the date of this Agreement, the Company or Dealer Manager shall provide the Escrow Agent with a certified tax identification number by furnishing an appropriate IRS form W-9 or W-8 (or substitute Form W-9 or W-8) and other forms and documents that the Escrow Agent may reasonably request, including without limitation a tax form for each Investor. The Company understands that if such tax reporting documentation is not so certified to the Escrow Agent, the Escrow Agent may be required by the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, to withhold a portion of any interest or other income earned on the Investor Funds pursuant to this Agreement. For tax reporting purposes, all interest and other income from investment of the Investor Funds shall, as of the end of each calendar year and to the extent required by the IRS, be reported as having been earned by the party to whom such interest or other income is distributed, in the year in which it is distributed.

The Company agrees to indemnify and hold the Escrow Agent harmless from and against any taxes, additions for late payment, interest, penalties and other expenses that may be assessed against the Escrow Agent on or with respect to any payment or other activities under this Agreement unless any such tax, addition for late payment, interest, penalties and other expenses shall be determined by a court of competent jurisdiction to have been caused by the Escrow Agent’s gross negligence or willful misconduct. The terms of this Section shall survive the termination of this Agreement and the resignation or removal of the Escrow Agent.

10

and any amendments thereof or supplements thereto, no printed or other matter in any language (including, without limitation, notices, reports and promotional material) which mentions the Escrow Agent’s name or the rights, powers, or duties of the Escrow Agent shall be issued by the Company or the Dealer Manager, or on the Company’s or the Dealer Manager’s behalf, unless the Escrow Agent shall first have given its specific written consent thereto. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any amendment or supplement to the Registration Statement or any other document related to the Offering (including the subscription agreement and exhibits thereto) that revises, alters, modifies, changes or adds to the description of the Escrow Agent or its rights, powers or duties hereunder shall not be issued by the Company or the Dealer Manager, or on the Company’s or Dealer Manager’s behalf, unless the Escrow Agent has first given specific written consent thereto.

The Dealer Manager shall provide a copy of each subscription check in order that the Escrow Agent, or its agent, may perform such OFAC Search.
