CHICAGO — Chicago-based Frontline Real Estate Partners LLC, Four Corners Advisors Inc. and Aries Capital LLC have formed a joint venture known as Frontline Real Estate Partners: Hospitality Division. The venture will provide competitive marketplace analysis, broker valuations, financing services, receivership management and disposition services aimed at hotel, luxury resort and gaming properties valued at $5 million to more than $100 million.
“The hotel market is facing a downturn unlike any we’ve experienced in recent history owing to the global pandemic,” says Michael Schindler, president and CEO of Four Corners Advisors. “Hotel owners are finding it necessary to defer loan payments or enter forbearance agreements, all of which are likely to expire before the market can fully recover. This is creating an unprecedented need for financing and receivership analysis, as well as expert guidance on how to best generate maximum recovery for lien holders.”
