Acting as exclusive hospitality investment advisors to developers, owners, hotel companies and investors, we have been actively involved in many different types of transactions. Ranging from site selection and acquisition to disposition and the buying and selling of hotels, resorts and golf courses, we have acted as advisors in more than $1 billion of transactions.

We have assisted developers in acquiring sites for hotel, resort and golf course development. These services include:

  • Sourcing and identifying potential site opportunities;
  • Evaluating sites to determine their potential for the prospective development;
  • Negotiating the acquisition of sites;
  • Assisting developers and legal counsel in preparing agreements of purchase and sale;
  • Advising on unique situations such as shared services agreements for sites that involve more than one use;
  • Working with municipal planners to prepare appropriate documentation for re-zoning applications.

We have acted for both vendors and purchasers of hotels, and have developed an in-depth database of qualified purchasers.

Exposing your property to as many prospective qualified purchasers as possible should be your primary objective. Through our international network of Horwath offices, we are able to provide a distribution network that is unequalled.
