Frequently Asked Questions

Do you represent both buyers and sellers?

We do. On the sell side, we focus on strategic positioning and value enhancement to help owners achieve the strongest possible outcome. For buyers, we offer deep market insight, underwriting support, and decades of experience in Hawaii’s hotel sector. We know what makes a hotel deal work—and how to help both sides move forward with confidence.

How do you support lenders and special servicers?

We work with lenders, special servicers, and court-appointed receivers to help stabilize, reposition, or resolve distressed hotel assets. That includes loan workouts, broker opinions of value, asset management support, and guidance through the receivership and disposition process. Our local expertise and hands-on hotel experience allow us to step in quickly and add value from day one.

What’s included in your loan restructuring services?

We help create practical, value-preserving solutions for troubled assets. That might involve repositioning strategies, sourcing rescue capital, or negotiating with existing stakeholders. We’ve also built strong relationships with local and national lenders, which helps us find common ground in even the most challenging capital structures.

How do you approach property valuations?

We rely on real-time data, local context, and decades of experience. Our broker opinions of value are backed by our proprietary database of Hawaii hotel transactions and performance benchmarks. Whether you're planning a sale, acquisition, or internal review, we provide honest, market-driven insight you can rely on.

What kind of buyer access do you offer?

We maintain strong relationships with active hotel investors—from institutional players to experienced local buyers. Many of our listings are placed directly with qualified groups and never publicly marketed. If you're looking to discreetly sell or to quietly source opportunities, we can open the right doors.
