Investors on the hunt for problem hotels

Barrows (BarrowsHotels.com), the provider of hotel investments and advisory services for hotels in the Middle East, sees enormous demand in the market for problem hotels. We are really taking the cherries out of the cake and earning hard money by purchasing problem hotels and selling them forward with long-term operator agreements. They approached us every day by interested parties to restructure and guide the sale of the asset.
Many hotels have run into financial and operational difficulties because of the global pandemic. The operating agreement is dissolved or surrendered while we are present with the restructuring of the asset. We improve the real estate, add value with improvements, long-term operator agreements, and sell it forward to institutional investors.
In the coming year, we expect a tremendous increase in smaller hotels. We are ready to intervene immediately with our knowledge and skills. Usually on behalf of the bank, but often also on behalf of the operator or asset manager, said chairperson Erwin Jager of Barrows Hotel Enterprises.
Because we know the industry inside out, we can perform a thorough analysis in a quick time and come with an improvement plan to protect the value of the property. The goal is always to increase the value of the asset and the daily operations of the hotel operator.
