#CREF advisory board members Ben Rowe, Founder and Managing Partner of KHP Capital Partners, and Richard Stockton, President and CEO of Braemar Hotels & Resorts (BHR), discussed the impact of capital market shifts on hotel deals during the Americas Lodging Investment panel. Stockton noted a slowdown in deals last year, with only about 10% of marketed deals closing, largely due to opportunistic sellers holding out for higher valuations. However, he expects more deals this year as sellers become more realistic. Rowe highlighted a shift in focus towards distressed assets in leisure markets, where the cost of capital has affected valuations, making entry points more attractive. Both emphasized the importance of strategic investments and transformative renovations to create value in today's market. #KHPcapitalpartners #BraemarHotelsandResorts #CapitalMarkets #RealEstateInvesting Click here to read more: https://lnkd.in/eMYe_VEG
