Frequently Asked Questions
Brokers are often incentivised to close a deal with a particular brand. We work only for the owner — our recommendations are based on what fits your asset, market and return expectations, not on placement fees.
Yes. We regularly review live management and franchise agreements, identify weak clauses and underperformance, and lead renegotiations to recover owner value and improve protections.
We maintain relationships across 75+ global and regional brands and can run a structured, like-for-like comparison so you choose on merit rather than on the first proposal received.
Absolutely. We model each structure against your capital, control preferences and risk appetite so the operating model — not just the logo — is the right one.
