Dealpath is the leading deal management and pipeline platform built specifically for institutional CRE acquisitions teams. It centralizes deal tracking, diligence task management, document organization, IC memo workflows, and portfolio-level pipeline analytics — replacing the fragmented combination of spreadsheets, shared drives, and email threads that acquisition teams historically relied on.
Acquisitions teams at institutional CRE firms — private equity funds, REITs, family offices, and developer-operators — face a structural problem: deals arrive from multiple sources (brokers, direct mail, digital outreach, data platforms), diligence runs across dozens of tasks and vendors, and IC prep consumes analyst time that should go to underwriting. Dealpath was designed to solve the pipeline coordination problem, but the data flows in and out of Dealpath — deal intake from sourcing, CRM sync, IC memo generation, and portfolio reporting — remain largely manual at most firms.

Discover how Dealpath powers real estate automation workflows
AI extracts structured deal data (asset type, geography, unit/SF count, asking price, cap rate, seller/broker, key dates) from inbound OMs, teasers, and broker emails, and pushes a pre-populated deal record into Dealpath via the partner API — without analyst data entry.
Acquisitions teams at active buyers receive 50-200 deal packages per month. Manual record creation for each consumes hours of analyst time that belongs in underwriting. Automating deal intake from the document layer compresses the pipeline without adding headcount.

Ready-to-deploy workflows powered by Dealpath + NextAutomation
When an OM, teaser PDF, or broker pitch deck lands in the acquisitions inbox, AI processes the document, extracts structured deal data, and creates a pre-populated Dealpath deal record — via the Dealpath API once provisioned — assigning it to the relevant geography or asset-class coverage person. The analyst receives a Dealpath link with data pre-filled rather than a raw PDF to process manually.

3AI extracts structured fields: asset class, address, unit/SF count, year built, asking price, cap rate, NOI, seller name, broker firm, broker contact, call-for-offers date
4Structured data validated: missing required fields flagged for analyst review rather than discarded
Deal intake time drops from 10-15 analyst minutes per package to under 60 seconds of review. Every qualified OM is in Dealpath the same day it arrives, with structured data populated, rather than queuing in an analyst's inbox for batch entry.

Get started in approximately 2–4 days of configuration once Dealpath API / partner integration access is provisioned. Provisioning timeline varies — initiate with your Dealpath account representative before your target go-live date.
Contact your Dealpath account representative to request API or partner integration access through the Dealpath Connect program. Provide your use case — automated deal intake, IC pipeline automation, and diligence monitoring. Dealpath will provision credentials (API key or OAuth) and confirm the available endpoint scope for your account tier.
Dealpath's API access is enterprise-gated and the provisioning timeline varies. Initiate this conversation with your Dealpath account manager before your target integration go-live date. Ask specifically about webhook availability for deal stage change events — if available, webhooks provide real-time triggers vs. the polling fallback.
Once Dealpath API credentials are provisioned, configure an n8n credential entry with your Dealpath API key or OAuth tokens. Test the authentication against a basic GET endpoint (e.g. pipeline list) to confirm the credential is active and your account has the correct permission scope for the workflows you plan to build.
Test with a read-only GET first (pipeline list or single deal fetch) before configuring write operations (deal creation, task creation). Confirm your provisioned credentials have write scope before building intake workflows.
Export or document your firm's Dealpath pipeline stage names and IDs (via the API or your Dealpath admin). These stage identifiers are used in n8n filter conditions to route workflows correctly — for example, triggering IC memo generation only when the exact stage name matching your 'IC Review' stage fires, not any stage change.
Stage names in Dealpath are firm-configurable. Confirm the exact string or ID your firm uses for each stage before wiring stage-change triggers. Mismatched stage names are the most common cause of workflow misfires during setup.
Configure the inbound OM processing workflow: n8n email trigger → AI document extraction node (Claude or OpenAI) → Dealpath deal creation action via HTTP POST to the partner API. Test end-to-end with a historical OM PDF before pointing to the live acquisitions inbox.
Use a historical OM from a closed or passed deal for testing — not a live active deal. This lets you validate AI extraction accuracy and Dealpath field mapping without creating test records in your live pipeline.
Set up the scheduled diligence task monitoring poll: n8n cron → Dealpath partner API task list query → overdue filter → Slack alert routing by assignee and overdue duration bucket. Configure threshold rules (1-3 days → DM; 4+ days → deal lead alert; 8+ days → leadership escalation).
Start with a single-deal test: create a test diligence task with a past due date, run the workflow manually, and confirm the correct Slack alert fires to the right channel and recipient before enabling the daily cron.
Wire the stage-change trigger to your downstream workflows: IC stage → IC memo generation (feeding the AI underwriting copilot); terminal stage → CRM sync (HubSpot or Salesforce broker record update); scheduled poll → portfolio dashboard refresh. Enable one downstream workflow at a time, confirming data accuracy before adding the next.
The IC memo generation workflow is highest-value but most complex. Build and test the CRM sync (simpler) first to validate the stage-change trigger is working reliably, then layer in the IC memo generation pipeline once the base trigger is stable.
