With decades of experience advising the hotel sector, Michael Shindler, President of Four Corners Advisors provides a comprehensive overview of key operating metrics, capital market trends, and growth projections for the remainder of 2023. His commentary synthesizes multiple industry data sources into a concise yet thorough analysis. 

Some highlights from Michael's analysis: 

 -  While the number of transactions declined by 36% in H1 2023 vs the same period last year, the average price per room held relatively steady. 

- Occupancy, ADR, and RevPAR are all projected to increase through 2024, signaling ongoing recovery. 

 - New construction will be constrained by several factors: high costs and limited financing, tighter building regulations, and supply chain challenges. Positive implications for existing assets. 

 - Billions in hotel loans are maturing, presenting refinancing challenges. Defaults may rise.
