INVESTMENT FOCUS

Lifestyle & Independent Hotels

We believe that the lifestyle and independent property segments offer some of the best investment opportunities in real estate due to a combination of growing consumer demand and opportunities for outsized performance improvement due to inconsistent execution by inexperienced owners and operators in this niche.

 

Primary Urban Markets & Select Destinations

We focus on primary urban markets and select destinations with diversified and growing demand characteristics and high barriers to entry. We also selectively pursue opportunities in secondary markets with high average daily rates where the lifestyle we create stands out among the competition.

 

Controlling Equity Position

We pursue control oriented equity investments that generally take the form of whole ownership or joint venture structures. Our targeted equity commitment is typically between $5 million and $20 million, but we will selectively invest in assets requiring both smaller and larger commitments.
