BLACKSTONE REAL ESTATE INCOME TRUST, INC.
SUPPLEMENT NO. 2 DATED OCTOBER 19, 2022
TO THE PROSPECTUS DATED FEBRUARY 25, 2022

This prospectus supplement (“Supplement”) is part of and should be read in conjunction with the prospectus of Blackstone Real Estate Income Trust, Inc., dated February 25, 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," "BREIT," "we," "us," or "our" refer to Blackstone 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 to BREIT’s portfolio;
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 all share classes; and
to provide an update on the status of our current public offering (the “Offering”); and
to otherwise update the Prospectus.

Portfolio Update

For the month ended September 30, 2022, BREIT’s Class I NAV per share increased from $15.09 to $15.11. The total return for Class I shares in September was 0.5% (not annualized).1

We believe BREIT’s $9.6 billion of immediate available liquidity and moderate leverage ratio of 46% will help BREIT weather economic shifts and take advantage of potential investment opportunities created by market volatility.2,3

On October 21, 2022, the Company expects to publish its Q3 2022 Quarterly Update for stockholders (“Quarterly Update”), which will be available on its website at www.breit.com. The contents of the Quarterly Update and the website are not incorporated by reference in or otherwise a part of this prospectus.

1 BREIT’s Class D NAV per share increased from $14.78 to $14.79, Class S NAV per share increased from $15.09 to $15.10 and Class T NAV per share increased from $14.87 to $14.88. BREIT’s Class D total return was 0.4%, Class S total return was 0.4% and Class T total return was 0.4% for September 2022.
2 Immediate available liquidity is as of October 17, 2022 and includes unrestricted cash and undrawn revolving credit facilities.
3 As of September 30, 2022. Our leverage ratio is measured by dividing (1) consolidated property level and entity level debt net of cash and loan related restricted cash, by (2) the asset value of real estate investments (measured using the greater of fair market value and cost) plus the equity in our settled real estate debt investments.

The November 1 transaction price for each of our share classes is equal to such class’s NAV per share as of September 30, 2022. A detailed calculation of the NAV per share is set forth below.

September 30, 2022 NAV per Share
We calculate NAV per share 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.breit.com and is made available on our toll-free, automated telephone line at (844) 702-1299. Please refer to “Net Asset Value Calculation and Valuation Guidelines” in the Prospectus for how our NAV is determined. The Adviser is ultimately responsible for determining our NAV. All our property investments are appraised annually by third party appraisal firms in accordance with our valuation guidelines. Transactions or events have occurred since September 30, 2022 that could have a material impact on our NAV per share, upon which our transaction price is based. We have included a breakdown of the components of total NAV and NAV per share for 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 I, Class T, and Class D common stockholders, as well as partnership interests of BREIT Operating Partnership held by parties other than the Company.

(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 as such fee is paid. 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, the Company has accrued under GAAP $1.6 billion of stockholder servicing fees payable to the Dealer Manager related to the Class S, Class T and Class D shares sold. The Dealer Manager does not retain any of these fees, all of which are retained by, or re-allowed (paid) to, participating broker-dealers.
