Stockdale Capital Partners Announces Strategic Investment and Partnership in AI Platform to Transform Real Estate Operations
Firm creates strategic partnership and invests in Zinq AI to power a unified intelligence layer across its vertically integrated, national real estate platform
LOS ANGELES, CA, September 22, 2026. Stockdale Capital Partners (“Stockdale”) has finalized a strategic partnership alongside a tactical investment in Zinq AI, an AI operating layer for real estate investment firms, which is creating a unified intelligence layer across the entirety of the firm’s operations – from investments to asset and portfolio management, capital formation, and back-office functions.
This firm-wide AI integration will enable Stockdale teams to rapidly access the latest market intelligence and data, accelerate underwriting and due diligence, streamline reporting processes, and make more informed decisions at every stage of the investment lifecycle. By reducing administrative work and eliminating information silos, the platform will allow teams to focus more time on strategy, analysis, execution, and value creation.
“While many commercial real estate firms continue to rely on fragmented, off-the-shelf AI solutions, if at all, Stockdale has taken a fundamentally different approach. By integrating a single AI-powered platform across the full lifecycle of our business, we are creating a centralized operating environment that connects data, documents, workflows, assets, and investment activity across every department,” added Michaels. We have been working with the Zing AI team and their engineers for over a year now and are excited about the launch of this powerful technology across the Stockdale platform. Stockdale’s investment in Zinq underscores the firm’s broader strategy of identifying technologies that can create meaningful operational advantages across its platform while enhancing outcomes for investors, tenants, partners, and employees. The collaboration also provides Stockdale with the opportunity to help shape the future development of technology specifically designed for the unique needs of institutional real estate owners and operators, according to Daniel Michaels, Stockdale’s Managing Partner.
“Working with Stockdale is a privilege. The best technology is built alongside the people who use it every day, and a vertically integrated firm willing to embed AI across every function gives us exactly that. The winners in the next decade of CRE won’t be the ones with the most assets. They’ll be the ones who make decisions ten times faster with the same conviction. That’s what we’re building with Stockdale,” said Derek Seibert, Co-Founder of Zinq AI.
“Artificial intelligence represents the next evolution of our operational capabilities, as a vertically-integrated owner-operator, said Michaels. We believe the future leaders of our industry will be the firms that successfully integrate AI into the core of their business, creating faster, smarter, and more connected organizations. Our investment in Zinq reflects our conviction in that future and our commitment to remaining at the forefront of innovation in real estate.”
