Looking for Advice on Pricing a Unique Hotel/Motel Property

Member since 2025 · 3 posts · 0 votes


A few years ago, I purchased an old hotel/motel property with four separate buildings. I’ve since fully remodeled the old motel rooms, which now include a mix of studio, one-bedroom, and a couple of two-bedroom units.

Right now, I’m bringing in around $19,000/month in rental income.

• Property taxes and insurance run me about $16,000/year.

• Utilities are averaging about $3,000/month.

One of the buildings is an older house that was part of the original motel setup. It’s partially remodeled and has new wiring, but it still needs quite a bit of rehab. It definitely has potential, but I just don’t have the interest or time to finish it.

I’ve had someone ask me a couple of times if I’d be willing to sell, and while I’m open to it, I’m having a hard time figuring out how to price a property like this. It’s unique, and I’m not sure how to properly value the income side versus the rehab needed for the house.

    Hi PAtrick,

    We are seeking the same thing for very different reasons.  I am trying to purchase  a vastly underperforming boutique hotel/resort property and was wondering if you have any experience in this area? It is a beautiful lake front property, 8000 square feet, 5 suites, 2 RV pads, 6.6 acres, lots of room to guild additional structure, Yurts, Cabins. If anyone can provide any input and guidance I would love to connect.

    Thanks,
    Mike Terry

    @Patrick Martin and @Mike Terry you might get some responses here...but you'll likely get a lot more responses in the Commercial forum. Post this in that forum as this forum is for the BRRRR Method (which is residential stuff). Thanks!
