Hospitality financing
Hospitality Lending
SBA 504 and 7(a) financing for hotel and motel acquisitions, ground-up construction, PIP renovations, and franchise conversions.
Program overview
Hospitality financing built around brand and property requirements
Hotel and motel transactions carry considerations most lenders aren't equipped to evaluate — franchise agreements, property improvement plans (PIPs), brand-mandated renovations, and seasonality in cash flow. We structure hospitality financing primarily through SBA 504, with SBA 7(a) available for acquisitions and working capital needs, and work with lenders who understand how to underwrite a hotel deal correctly the first time.
What These Loans Can Finance
Ground-Up Construction
Build a new property on land you own or are purchasing as part of the transaction.
PIP Renovations
Finance brand-mandated Property Improvement Plan renovations to maintain flag standards.
Franchise Conversion
Change flags or convert an independent property to a franchise brand.
Refinance Existing Debt
Refinance an existing hospitality property loan to improve terms or fund improvements.
