"The sale of the Holiday Inn Express & Suites JAX Town Center is a great example of our firm's focus on upper-midscale and upscale hotel transactions.

Sam Patel, Vice President Investments, says, "Our team is pleased to have represented the seller in the successful sale of the Holiday Inn Express & Suites Jacksonville – Town Center. Despite a challenging transaction environment, our competitive marketing process generated exceptionally strong investor interest and multiple offers, ultimately resulting in a successful sale to a qualified out-of-state hospitality investor. This transaction highlights our firm's ability to navigate complex market conditions and deliver favorable outcomes for our clients."

Randy Taylor, Senior Vice President Investments, says, "This transaction highlights our strong presence in Florida and our ability to deliver results in a softer market, achieving a sale price of approximately $186,000 per key. We generated interest from multiple buyers and secured multiple offers, ultimately aligning with the seller's goals while providing the buyer with a cash-flowing asset at closing. We continue to work with several investors actively seeking similar hotel properties throughout Florida."

Built in 2019, the five-story, 99-room Holiday Inn Express & Suites Jacksonville – Town Center is strategically located just off Interstate 295 in one of Jacksonville's prominent commercial and retail corridors.
