A New Spark for San Diego's Coastal Jewel: Aries Ushers in a New Social Era for La Jolla
Why this matters
Hospitality has separated by chain scale and demand segment, with luxury and resort outperforming and select-service holding pricing power on a leaner cost base. New construction starts remain at multi-decade lows, which has supported in-place RevPAR and made conversions of soft-branded flags an increasingly active part of transaction velocity. San Diego life sciences vacancy remains the lowest in the major life-science clusters, and multifamily fundamentals continue to be supported by a coastal supply ceiling. For sponsors with operational expertise, the sector continues to offer one of the more compelling income-plus-appreciation profiles available across CRE.
