California Boutique Hotel Conference Debuts in 2027 with Appellation President Courtland Palmer as Keynote Speaker
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.
