Your Hotel May Be Worth More Than Its Current Financials Suggest.
A Smarter Path to a Hotel Sale
Weak historical operating results can make hotel financing difficult, reduce buyer interest, and place downward pressure on valuations. Even when the property has strong underlying potential.
Latitude offers an alternative: a structured lease with an option to purchase, designed to improve hotel performance, strengthen its financial profile, and create a pathway toward a future sale.

Improve Performance First. Create a Better Exit Opportunity
Rather than forcing an immediate sale at a depressed valuation, Latitude can propose a lease-with-option-to-purchase structure that allows time for operational improvements to take effect.
Under a negotiated agreement, Latitude or an affiliated investment partner leases the property, assumes agreed hotel operating responsibilities, and implements a focused business plan to improve revenue, profitability, and asset performance.
The owner receives contracted rental payments during the lease period, while both parties establish a potential future acquisition under predefined terms.
How the model works
-
We evaluate historical performance, market dynamics, brand positioning, operating inefficiencies, physical condition, and the opportunity to improve sustainable NOI.
-
We negotiate a lease term, rental payments, a future purchase price or valuation mechanism, and the allocation of operating and capital responsibilities. A portion of rental payments may be credited toward the purchase when agreed.
-
Through Latitude Hotel Management or another designated operator, we execute a commercial and operational strategy focused on revenue growth, cost efficiency, guest experience, and improved profitability.
-
As improved performance is demonstrated through operating results, the property may become more attractive to lenders and potential capital partners.
-
If the option is exercised, the acquisition proceeds under the negotiated terms. If not, the parties may consider a mutually agreed lease extension or management arrangement.
