Asset TypeExtended-stay hospitality properties are designed for longer-term guest accommodations and typically include in-room kitchen facilities and flexible layouts. Demand is often driven by necessity-based accommodations, corporate travel, relocations, and project-based stays.
-
Opportunistic
Investment StrategyOpportunistic strategies focus on assets requiring ground-up development, significant redevelopment, repositioning, or restructuring. These investments generally involve higher levels of risk and are more sensitive to execution, timing, and market conditions.
-
Regulation D
Investment TypeRegulation D offerings give accredited investors access to private investments not available on public exchanges. These opportunities can provide diversification and attractive return potential, though they may involve higher risk and reduced liquidity compared to traditional publicly traded investments.
Why Invest?
-
Need-based Accommodations
Typical guests include workers on longer-term assignments such as consultants, construction crews, and traveling medical professionals as well as medical travelers, residents in between living arrangements, and budget conscious travelers.
-
Potential for Stable Cash Output
The Portfolio is positioned to benefit from consistent cash distributions as WoodSpring Suites hotels have historically stabilized within six to twelve months, following a compressed construction period.
-
Low Cost to Build and Operate
Woodspring Suites’ efficient development model employs a pre-established architectural plan to facilitate a fifteen-month construction timeline on an estimated $18.2 million budget. Minimal interior furnishings, limited amenities, and a bi-weekly cleaning schedule enable the hotels to operate with a light staffing model, contributing to low operational overhead.
-
Strong Investment Activity Favoring Institutional Exits
Among similar transactions within the extended stay segment, Starwood Capital and Blackstone recently acquired 11 WoodSpring Suites hotels for $1.5 billion, reflecting strong appetite for portfolio acquisitions from institutional buyers in this $16 billion segment.
