Real Estate Acquisition Process

We pride ourselves on a fast and efficient deal process, completed at a pace that meets the seller’s timing requirements. With the ability to close all equity and in as little as 30 days, W. P. Carey welcomes the opportunity to work with you.

4. Closing
All documents are signed and funds are transferred to the seller. As an all-equity buyer, W. P. Carey does not need to obtain mortgage financing to fund its acquisition, providing fast execution and high closing certainty.
