Q1 2009 Asia Pacific Hotel Construction Pipeline | Lodging Econometrics

There is mounting evidence that the precipitous economic declines in many countries in Asia Pacific may be close to ending. A bottom is likely forming, hopefully to be followed by a modest recovery. Declines from the peak were caused mainly by the dramatic fall-off in the region’s manufactured exports brought on by the worldwide recession and the drying up of cross-border financing. Like in other regions of the world, the new economic base line will be significantly below the 2007 highs.

U.S. Hotel Construction Pipeline Decelerating Rapidly

In Q1 2009, the US Construction Pipeline decelerated rapidly and now stands at 4,918 projects / 619,431 rooms. Compared to the Pipeline peak in Q2 2008, this is a drop of 16% by projects and 21% by rooms, a substantial fall-off for a three-quarter period. Current pipeline trends are beginning to reflect the deep recession in the economy, the banking crisis, the evaporation of mortgage lending, and serious shortfalls in lodging operating performance.

Asia Pacific Construction Pipeline Q4 2008 | Lodging Econometrics

Heavily reliant on their manufacturing and exporting industries, Asian economies are seeing sizable, even historic, contraction, as global demand for goods produced in the region has plummeted. Several countries, including Japan, Taiwan and Thailand, reported negative GDP growth in Q4 2008. The blockbuster economies of China and India still expect positive GDP growth this year, however the rate of growth will be significantly slower, falling to rates not seen since earlier in the decade. LE expects the macroeconomic indicators to continue trending downward into 2010.

Europe, Middle East & Africa Q4 2008 construction pipeline | Lodging Econometrics

Europe has the largest Pipeline in EMEA with 971 projects/161,236 rooms at the end of Q4 2008. The Middle East's Total Pipeline has 503 projects/147,488 rooms. Africa's totals 171 projects/35,267 rooms. As in other parts of the world, the Pipelines in these regions are heavily weighted for the near-term. 50% of Europe's projects and 53% of projects in both the Middle East and Africa are already Under Construction. This is due to the rush by developers during Q4 2007 and Q1 2008 and through the fall in the Middle East to get projects in the ground before the availability of lending was further reduced.

2009 Latin America Construction Pipeline Report | Lodging Econometrics

At the end of 2008, the Total Construction Pipeline for Latin America was 616 projects/107,433 rooms. Pipeline totals were down 10% by projects and 16% by rooms from the cyclical peak in Q1 2008. While the region’s Pipeline is trending down, to date the retreat is not as steep as it is in other world regions. Developers still consider it an attractive area for lodging development, particularly if they are partnered with a major hotel franchise company. • The region’s Pipeline is front-end loaded, with 55% of total projects already Under Construction. Having secured financing before the economic slowdown and global credit crisis impeded lending, these projects will most likely enter as new supply, with the rate of New Openings ramping up through 2010.

Asia Pacific Construction Pipeline Are At A Five-quarter Low

In the Asia Pacific region, Construction Starts are at a five-quarter low and will continue to trend downward, closely tracking development trends in the US. Because accessing financing is so difficult, many projects already in the Pipeline cannot migrate forward towards Construction, but are stalled in the Scheduled Starts in the Next Twelve Months and Early Planning stages. Project Cancellations are at an all-time high, reflecting the unavailability of financing and heightening developer concerns about a global slowdown. The fall-off in international travel, guestroom demand and attendant pricing pressures are accelerating and expected to continue to trend downward well into the next year as the full impact of the economic crisis in the region takes hold.
