W. P. Carey has faced a 12% decline in value so far this year, but the REIT completed its portfolio restructuring. I previously recommended WPC as a strong buy due to its successful restructuring, low valuation, and potential for growth in industrial and warehouse properties.

WPC's clean FQ3'24 performance has been promising indeed, as the management also hints at sequential growth in FQ4'24. The REIT's stable ABR growth, 98.8% occupancy rate, and positive re-leasing rates continue to highlight the strong management execution and promising FY2025 growth opportunities. For now, WPC's overly discounted valuations at FWD Price/AFFO of 11.92x has triggered its richer dividend yields compared historical trends and its REIT peers.
