ASK Partners’ Post

An interesting morning at the Bisnow: UK Hotel Outlook conference yesterday. Some key updates:  ●  It is clear that the market is still in a period of transition. While there has been a noticeable recovery in financing, underwriting hotel performance remains a challenge.  ●  Private equity firms have been focusing on smaller, strategic assets as core capital remains scarce, with a real emphasis on partnerships and value add strategies to unlock growth.  ● The transaction market is slowly improving (although not yet at pre-covid levels), with deals up 60% from last year. #Bisnow #realestatefinance #UKhotels #realestatetrends

🔔 Investors assume moderate LTV ratios ⭐ According to Cushman & Wakefield’s 2024 Hotel Investor Compass, nearly half of the surveyed investors use a 50-55% LTV when underwriting new deals, a significantly larger proportion than in 2022 (27% of investors). ⭐Compared to 2022, a smaller share of investors assume all-equity deal structure in their underwriting (3% of investors compared to 11% in 2022). ⭐On the other hand, there has been a decrease in the share of investors assuming LTV ratios exceeding 55% (33% in 2024 vs 51% in 2022), indicating constrained access to financing. These findings are based on surveying 60 leading hotel investors, including senior representatives of major private equity firms, funds, REITs and other institutional investors.
