Consulting & Valuation - Overview
HVS Consulting & Valuation Services is the world’s premier hotel consulting and valuation firm with offices in North America, Europe, Asia, South America and the Middle East. We enjoy an impeccable worldwide reputation for credibility, excellence and thoroughness. With a staff of more than 150 professionals, HVS has evaluated tens of thousands of lodging properties of all sizes.
In these challenging times, relying solely on national or international hotel market
trends can produce an inaccurate or unfavorable picture. Changing markets and variances
in neighborhood and real estate values can cause fluctuations in how a hotel is
valued. Hotel owners and potential owners must be able to plan with confidence when
investing in hotel real estate, and the most up-to-date and precise information
is necessary. That’s why we create an appraisal or feasibility report based on the
unique potential for your hotel and data from your specific market – specifics essential
to establishing accurate value.
Our database of hotel information – the largest in the world – combined with our
broad insight and extensive experience, enables HVS Consulting & Valuation Services
to produce well-documented appraisal reports with fully supported value conclusions
to hold up under intense scrutiny and achieve their intended results. We have access
to thousands of management agreements, franchise contracts, leases, mortgages and
other related financial documents, allowing our team to provide thorough documentation
for our conclusions.
- Whether you are an owner, developer, operator, investor, lender, industry association, convention and visitor bureau or public agency, your project will attract the immediate attention it deserves when accompanied by an HVS consulting report.
- We advise in the development of new hotels, and work with developers, architects and other development team members to conceptualize the optimal lodging product for a particular site.
- Our services include expert reviews of property tax assessments tailored to the hotel industry. An accurate, up-to-date valuation of a hotel's real property assessment takes current market conditions into account to help you make reductions in this costly expense category. Tax assessors may call on HVS in revaluation years to establish accurate, thorough assessments that lead to fewer appeals.
