Knowing that alot of counties will help with taxes and such..some even
buy and give land to companies to bring jobs into an area...why not pick a place you'd like to have a Hotel at an airport. See what kind of biz deal can be worked. I am sure you know your biz a heck of alot more than myself,....but maybe a new hotel with all the local gov breaks may be more cost wise than buying an older hotel that needs work..and may not get the local gov goodies! I can only imagine the mortgage payment on a hotel....but it should make a nice tax break ![]() Great ideas, but buying a tired older hotel is always going to be cheaper than building new. The trick is to find one that needs freshening up, not demolition. And anything we would do would be way too small for any government to be interested in funding -- heck, our entire staff is just 5 people (plus Mary and me). Not a big help to anyone's unemployment rolls. I don't think we can provide the kind of service we do if we were build a hotel much bigger. I think we could MAYBE handle 45 suites, total, at the outside, and still do the delivered-to-the-suite breakfast thing. Beyond that, we'd start slipping into "Holiday/Ramada/Super 8" status -- which would kill us. -- Jay Honeck Iowa City, IA Pathfinder N56993 www.AlexisParkInn.com "Your Aviation Destination" |
