Women in Hospitality Take Center Stage at AAHOA's 5th Annual HerOwnership Conference in Nashville
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. Nashville continues to absorb meaningful multifamily and mixed-use development. Hospitality has been a standout performer through the cycle. For sponsors with operational expertise, the sector continues to offer one of the more compelling income-plus-appreciation profiles available across CRE.
