Marketing description

OFFERING OVERVIEW:

DSH Hotel Advisors has been retained as the exclusive broker to market for sale the Econo Lodge by Choice Hotels Lake City, Florida, a two-story 61-room exterior corridor hotel located directly off of Interstate-75, within a close proximity to several major demand generators. Additionally, current ownership would consider selling adjacent land and a retail plaza, which includes a liquor store, a single-family home, multiple rental income sources, and 47.3+/- acres of land.

PROPERTY CONDITION:

The subject property remains in good condition due to the recent renovations completed and an ongoing capital improvement plan. It is estimated that the change of ownership PIP would be approximately $50,000+/-; however, this figure is a preliminary estimate. *The actual PIP requirements must be verified directly with Choice Hotels, as they are determined solely at the franchisor’s discretion and may vary in both scope and cost. This includes, without limitation, any franchisor requirements related to a change of ownership. The Recipient is solely responsible for independently verifying all such matters.

RENOVATIONS COMPLETED INCLUDE:

• New Interior & Exterior Paint

• New Flooring

• New Bedding

• New Mattresses

• New TVs

• Parking Lot Resurfaced

MARKET OVERVIEW:

The subject property located in Lake City, FL is conveniently located adjacent to Interstate-75. Lake City has long been known as “The Gateway to Florida” as it sits approximately 64 miles from Jacksonville, 46 miles from Gainesville, and 104 miles from Tallahassee. Lake City is the northernmost sizable city in Florida on Interstate-75 and carries a large percentage of Florida’s tourist and commercial traffic. Lake City and its natural beauty and outdoor activities is a natural theme park for outdoor enthusiasts, festival goers, music lovers, or those simply wanting to spend a little time in a quiet and tranquil setting. With crystal-clear freshwater springs, history, culture, various music festivals, and an abundance of outdoor activities, Lake City attracts visitors year-round.

UPSIDE POTENTIAL:

The Econo Lodge by Choice Hotels is situated directly off I-75 and is only a short distance from I-10. The subject property has historically outperformed the comp set in ADR but lagged significantly in Occupancy, ultimately placing it ranked 4 of 7 in RevPAR. Significant upside potential remains for an owner-operator through active management and managing guest experience to ultimately improve the bottom-line.
