Hospitality Investment & Asset Management

Three connected services across the hospitality investment lifecycle.

Kantarigan MC Group works across hospitality acquisition, ownership, repositioning, Asset Management, operation, exit and reinvestment. The appropriate service follows the investment objective and the asset’s current stage.

Strategic Asset Advisory → Asset Management → Hospitality or portfolio route where appropriate.

Service architecture

Connected by the asset strategy. Defined by the required outcome.

01

Strategic Asset Advisory

Decide what the asset should become — and whether it should be acquired at all. Strategic Asset Advisory establishes the commercial case, risks, potential operating model and recommended route before significant capital or management commitments are made.

  • Strategic Asset Performance Review
  • Strategic Asset Planning and Asset Action Plan
  • Acquisition strategy and investment criteria development
  • Opportunity screening and commercial / operational due diligence coordination
  • Repositioning, development and conversion strategy
  • Operator and brand strategy
  • Hold, improve, dispose and reinvestment analysis
  • Exit strategy and disposal preparation

For prospective investors, the work tests whether the acquisition criteria are commercially coherent, what kind of asset should be targeted, whether a specific opportunity should proceed and which route the asset may ultimately qualify for.

02

Asset Management

Own the asset. We manage the strategy. Kantarigan MC Group acts on the owner’s side to implement the agreed asset strategy, oversee performance, capital expenditure, operators and long-term value creation.

  • Implementation of the Asset Action Plan
  • Annual business plan, budgets and cash-flow oversight
  • CAPEX, refurbishment, repositioning and development oversight
  • Operator selection and operator supervision
  • Asset performance monitoring and owner reporting
  • NOI improvement and value-enhancement strategy
  • Hold, refinance, reposition and exit strategy
  • Acquisition and reinvestment strategy where relevant

Kantarigan MC Group may remain Asset Manager while an independent hospitality operator manages the day-to-day hotel or aparthotel operation.

Asset Management and Hospitality Management

Two complementary disciplines. Two different focal points.

Asset Management

The investment asset.

  • Owner strategy and investment decisions
  • Budgets, cash flow and capital expenditure
  • Operator supervision and asset performance
  • Value creation, financing, exit and reinvestment

Hospitality Management

The operating hospitality business.

  • Reservations, revenue management and distribution
  • Staffing, operations and guest experience
  • Operational controls and service delivery
  • Operating P&L and owner reporting

Asset Management manages the investment. Hospitality Management manages the operation.

The connected lifecycle

From acquisition through ownership to the next asset.

The client may enter at any point: to define an acquisition strategy, improve an existing asset, appoint an operator, prepare a disposal or reinvest capital into a replacement opportunity.

Assess→Decide→Acquire / Reposition→Asset Manage→Operate→Evolve / Exit→Reinvest
