About Stalwart Equities

Stalwart Equities Inc. is a privately held real estate company focused on the development, management, and operation of industrial warehouse and distribution centers. The firm was established in 2015 by Samuel Wachsman, a third-generation real estate professional whose family has a long history in property development, including affordable housing projects in New York City. Wachsman founded the company after identifying the growing shift from traditional retail to e-commerce, anticipating the corresponding need for large-scale distribution and fulfillment facilities.

The company's business model centers on identifying and acquiring undervalued or challenging plots of land, particularly in competitive infill markets, and transforming them into productive, value-add developments. Stalwart Equities works with owners, brokers, corporations, and municipalities to find commercial opportunities, specializing in navigating complex zoning, permitting, and parceling challenges to gain approvals for new projects. The firm operates primarily in the New York Metropolitan region, with projects across New Jersey, New York, and Pennsylvania. Its portfolio includes over 200 acres under development, translating to more than 3 million square feet of industrial space in progress.

Financing for projects is initially secured through principal funding, with opportunities often extended to a private network of investors for down payments and further project funding. The company collaborates with architectural firms to design Class A buildings that serve logistical and warehouse functions while also incorporating administrative and social elements. This strategy is designed to deliver strong returns for both principals and investors.
