CEO Michael Campbell announced that The Carlton Group, has arranged approximately $55 million of equity and debt in a multi-tranched capital stack to facilitate the acquisition of a 511-key limited service portfolio acquisition in North and South Carolina consisting of five hotels branded by Marriott, IHG, and Choice flags. Managing Director Steven Fenster assisted in the transaction.
The capital stack arranged by Carlton included an approximate $36.5 million first mortgage, $8 million of preferred equity from a West Coast wealth manager and $9 million of common equity which was invested by high net worth relationships of Carlton. In addition, Carlton’s hospitality team also brought in the hotel manager who invested capital along with the sponsors.
“We had to be creative in structuring the capital stack” Campbell stated. “Even though the projected returns were very attractive and the acquisition cap rate was high, we had to find investors who were comfortable investing in secondary markets and limited service hotels. But at the end of the day, both the Sponsors and Investors will do very well”.
Carlton arranged the capital structure on behalf of the general partnership between a highly experienced group of hospitality professionals and a high net worth investor looking to diversify its real estate holdings.
