Highgate, through its affiliates, has developed a workout process that supports the asset as a result of having been both the receiver and operator for numerous banks, special services agencies, lenders, and federal agencies.
Using exclusive resources and data, Highgate works diligently to recommend cost-saving strategies and additional revenue sources for underperforming hotels. A dedicated team including accounting, payroll, insurance, compliance, engineering, human resources, and sales and marketing carefully works with local teams to manage, preserve and maximize property value.
In addition to Highgate's proprietary revenue management technology and distribution services, its global buying power and centralized purchasing system help to secure best-in-class pricing on products and services, while its institutional accounting platform navigates complex finances and legal compliance.
With a large national presence across all asset segments, Highgate is in position to quickly facilitate operating agreements and transition control for hospitality assets seeking immediate relief.
