Over the course of building our business, we have embraced the internet, raised children, welcomed grandchildren, and represented countless individuals when they chose to buy and sell their hospitality properties. Here are some of the enduring truths about this industry we have observed over thirty years: Hospitality is about fun– simple- have a little fun every day! Be brave- bravery comes with a measure of fear and vulnerability, but it always pays off! Business cycles are inevitable– they will repeat- enjoy the ups, expect the downs. Every property has merit– there is inherent value in every opportunity that the right buyer will appreciate- there is a perfect buyer for every property! There is no shame in selling– when it’s time to list your property, embrace the process; it is in no way a failure. Look forward– reflect on the past, don’t dwell, and embrace the future. Principle is everything- overlay all decisions with principle, and they will be sound.
