If you are facing an upcoming 2024 forecast for your properties or portfolio and you want to take a fresh look at operating expenses, think about utilizing an HVS HOSI for macro revenue and expense trends or an HVS CompStat for a curated selection of five comparable operating statements for review and comparison. We can also provide a competitive set occupancy forecast and market overview of the latest demand drivers and potential new supply impacts.


We are looking forward to attending the upcoming Latino Hotel Association Conference, October 11 & 12 in Southlake, Texas. Our Luigi Major will be presenting our latest forecasts and predictions for the hotel industry. We encourage you to attend this important event. 


Our CHICOS conference is also quickly approaching, being held this year in beautiful St. Thomas at the Westin Beach Resort & Spa, November 12 through 14.
