HEI Value creation
Upon implementing HEI’s operating platform tools, resources and strategies, the hotel was able to immediately maximize its cash flow potential. We right-sized expenses through HEI’s unique staffing model and expense management approach, eliminating more than $2.8 million of unnecessary recurring operating expenses. Additionally, implementing HEI’s proprietary revenue management tools, combined with our deep understanding of the Marriott reservation system, led to a quick lift of 6 points in market share. In total, along with our successful F&B repositioning, the NOI grew more than 63% within 2 years, positioning for a sale achieving a 47% IRR. Our capital partner added significant value throughout the execution of the business plan, and we have gone on to complete 6 additional investments with them.
