What separates smart hotel deals from painful ones in 2025? Hotel broker Ryan Bodine (NewGen Advisory) joins Bryan to unpack what buyers/sellers keep getting wrong—overpaying under 1031 pressure, ignoring transfer PIPs, and underinvesting in staff—and how to prep your asset for a saner exit in the next 6–12 months.
About the guest: Ryan advises owners and investors across limited-service to full-service assets, with a straight-shooting, relationship-first approach. Fresh off the 2025 Lodging Conference, he brings a frank read on where pricing, lenders, and brands are actually headed.
You’ll learn:
• Why “overpaying to avoid taxes” is wrecking deals—and how to resist 1031 clock pressure
• How defaults, lender workouts, and price resets could shape a buyer’s market
• PIP strategy: which hills to die on vs. where to concede (and how to use leverage)
• Extended-stay realities: why proven operating models outperform shiny new flags
• Labor as asset value: paying more now vs. slow erosion later (reviews, corporate accounts)
• Financials that sell: USALI-style reporting, T-12s, and clean data rooms that attract real buyers
• Capital today: DSCR expectations, who’s lending, and what “makes sense” in 2025–26
