Hotel Real Estate Investments and Asset Management

Offered By: eCornell

Well-structured hotel real estate investments create value and provide benefits to all partners in a deal: owners, management companies, and/or franchisees. Understanding the value of hotel real estate investments and the dynamics of the financial and operational aspects of real estate investments, asset management, and management contracts is critical to the success of mid-level and senior management in the hospitality and real estate industries.

This certificate series focuses on developing a comprehensive knowledge base and tool set that enables you to fully understand the complex dynamics surrounding the hotel real estate and management contracts from the point of view of the property owner, operator, and lender. This multi-party view fully enables participants to structure and negotiate the most advantageous agreement taking into account the motivations of all interested parties.

There are three central themes to this certificate series:

• The separation of real estate ownership and control as a way to increase value is vital to contemporary practice

• The valuation and financing of hotel real estate investments is a key competency for today's decision makers

• Asset management has become a legitimate and respected tool for value creation and value improvement
