Our Company

Watermark Capital Partners, LLC is a Lake Forest, Illinois based real estate investment management firm that seeks to creatively enhance the value of our investments and deliver attractive risk-adjusted returns for our investors. We concentrate on assets that benefit from specialized marketing and value enhancement strategies, demographic shifts, and the unique skill sets of our team, including hotels and resorts; resort residential products; recreational uses including golf and club ownership programs; and new-urbanism and mixed-use projects.

Our current investing activities are focused on Carey Watermark Investors Incorporated, a publicly registered real estate investment trust (REIT) that was formed to make investments primarily in the lodging and lodging-related sectors. Affiliates of W. P. Carey & Co. LLC and Watermark Capital Partners advise the REIT and manage its overall portfolio.

Our team is led by Michael G. Medzigian, who is also CEO of Carey Watermark Investors and who has been responsible for over $13 billion of real estate investments in his almost 30 years of experience in the real estate industry.

Watermark takes pride in its history of success and its reputation for forward thinking and contributing to numerous industry advances. While nuances will change, our core business philosophies will not - value-added investing in unique property holdings; hands on oversight of all strategic property positioning and operations; commitment to our investors, associates and business partners; and respect for the communities and natural environments in which we operate.
