Outlook and Expectations Most locations – RevPAR growth, now mainly rate driven, profits up, values up… Strong buyer demand prevails – yields unlikely to fall further – now is a great time to sell… Pre-”crunch” – sale prices might have risen because of increased projected earnings… Expectation of current buyers is to sell in 3-5 years’ time – who will those buyers be…? Issues – debt provision, human capital, sustainability – but… Effect of current market turmoil? Have we reached the end of the cycle?
“Credit Crunch” – Today’s Update… US investment market, CMBS – stagnant, nervous Middle East – no effect yet Deals in Europe – many stalling, few completed Larger ones – longer to come to fruition Quality assets & operators – interest prevails, little or no impact so far Secondary assets / larger portfolios – tougher Banks – reducing LTVs 5%–10% points Interest rates up 50–90 bp’s Yields moving out by 0.25%–1% Short term issue – 3-6 months…?
