Founded in 1973, this global net lease real estate investment trust (REIT) has effectively combined the stability of reliable income with the potential for growth, creating a portfolio that is as varied as it is extensive. Carefully selecting a mix of industrial, warehouse, office, retail, and self-storage properties, WP Carey spreads its investments across the U.S. and Europe.

By focusing mostly on net lease agreements, where tenants are responsible for most property-related expenses, the company solidifies its cash flow, earning steady rental income while minimizing operational costs. The lifeblood of WP Carey's business model lies in its ability to adeptly navigate long-term lease agreements with creditworthy tenants. These agreements typically span decades, providing a predictable income stream. The firm strategically invests in properties with high occupancy and potential for growth, ensuring a blend of stability and upside potential. Moreover, its focus on sale-leasebacks allows it to partner with companies looking to unlock capital from their owned assets, adding another layer of ingenuity to its operations. By acting as both landlord and financial partner, WP Carey supports a model that fosters tenant retention and portfolio expansion. In an ever-evolving real estate market, WP Carey's steadfast commitment to strategic diversification and disciplined asset management has allowed it to maintain a competitive edge, ensuring resilient performance and consistent returns for its investors.
