- Sachem Capital Corp. is a real estate finance company that originates, funds, underwrites, services, and manages a diversified portfolio of short‑term, secured residential and commercial real estate loans, primarily secured by first mortgage liens on real property and offered to real estate investors and developers to fund acquisition, renovation, rehabilitation, development, and improvement projects. The company operates as a real estate investment trust (REIT) with a focus on asset-backed lending and short‑term financing solutions, delivering income through interest and fee income while actively managing risk through disciplined underwriting and loan servicing practices. Sachem Capital engages in the origination and funding of loans, loan servicing, asset management, and related administrative activities, maintaining a portfolio across suburban and urban markets in the United States, with a geographic emphasis on its core lending footprint in the Northeast and mid-Atlantic regions. The firm was founded in 2016 and is headquartered in Branford, Connecticut, United States. The company pursues growth through selective loan origination, portfolio diversification, and strategic capital raises to support yield enhancement and duration management within its niche of short‑term real estate financing. Subsidiaries and affiliates operate to support loan underwriting, securitization activities, and note issuance programs as part of its capital structure optimization. Sachem Capital’s product set includes first‑mortgage secured real estate loans, bridge and construction loans, and related servicing and asset management services, complemented by ongoing capital market activities such as secured note issuances and other debt instruments to fund ongoing lending operations. The company’s client base comprises real estate investors, developers, and construction borrowers seeking flexible, rapid deployment capital for property acquisition, redevelopment, and project completion within established lending criteria and risk controls. Recent developments include strategic financings and refinancings, expansion of the loan pipeline through market‑driven partnerships, and the continued optimization of its credit portfolio and liquidity profile to support growth in originations and asset deployment while maintaining REIT status and enhanced capital structure. The latest major changes reflect partnerships and strategic alliances in real estate development and construction services, targeted expansions in geographic footprint, and ongoing capital market activity including note issuances and potential asset sales to enhance liquidity and capital efficiency. Sachem Capital’s operations are positioned to serve publicly traded debt instruments tied to its lending activities, with ongoing reporting and investor communications aligned to market expectations for real estate finance peers. The company maintains an emphasis on transparent governance, robust underwriting standards, and proactive loan servicing to preserve credit quality and generate stable cash flows for investors.
