Full answer
Hotel and riad valuation is a specialised field. We follow RICS VPGA 4 (Trade-related valuation) for any asset where value is materially linked to business operations rather than the real estate alone.
**Methodology:**
1. Analysis of operating accounts (3-5 years)
2. RevPAR benchmarking against local comparables
3. EBITDAR (profit before rent) capitalisation
4. DCF over 5-10 years with turnover growth and margin assumptions
5. Cost approach (DRC) for the physical building
6. Reconciliation for a final Market Value
**Key data inputs:**
- Year-by-year ADR, occupancy, RevPAR
- Operating cost ratios (labour, food & beverage, utilities, marketing)
- GOPPAR (Gross Operating Profit per Available Room)
- Management contract terms if branded (Hilton, Accor, etc.)
- CAPEX history and forward plan
- Market room night supply forecast
**Markets we cover:**
- Marrakech (riads, resorts, luxury hotels) — our strongest hotel market
- Fes (medina riads, boutique conversions)
- Essaouira (beachfront, atlantic coast)
- Agadir (resort hotels, beachfront, Taghazout)
- Casablanca (business hotels, serviced apartments)
- Tangier (northern coast, Med resorts)
**Assignments:** acquisitions, banking (VPGA 2 mortgage), refinancing, disposal, partnership disputes, succession, operator changes.
