Renting Out Your Hotel Unit
Although the condo hotel concept has received little recognition in business and analyst research, due to it being a recent trend with rapid popularity growth, researchers have commented on the massive numbers of major industry players looking to increase their wealth in the condotel game.
When renting out condo hotel units, it is important for owners to understand that the booming industry has created for them, an atmosphere where the sky is the limit. Condo hotel rentals have topped ski resorts and other tourist destinations in recent years. The growing trend has afforded a margin of nearly 50 percent per unit rental for owners nationwide.
What many consider the most rewarding benefit of owning a condo hotel unit is the expected profit from selling their unit when the price goes up. But owners must be cautious, and not make this benefit the only reason for investing in this type of real estate. Because of rules outlined by the Securities and Exchange Commission, many current developers are prohibited from discussing economic or tax benefits owners may attain from renting their property. So buyers can sometimes find themselves entering into purchase agreements without being fully knowledgeable of all of the facts.
A typical condo hotel rental agreement will include policies on rates, acceptable payment methods, reservation & cancellation procedures, check in/out procedures, rules regarding smoking, and use of phones. These policies vary according to general hotel policies, types, and ownership.
Florida is considered the hottest hotspot for condo hotel projects. Adding to the current number, an estimated 30 additions are currently under construction for the area. An even bigger estimate of 10,000 units is expected to be available in the next few years.
Condo hotels are said to be the current most popular trend in the hotel industry. Hotels known for their prestige like the Quality Inn, Hilton, Four Seasons, and Marriot, have given credibility to a concept that was once infamous for less plausible business deals such as tax shelter use.
