Three Hotel Closings. Three States. Trusted Capital Advisor.

Pineapple Capital Group successfully secured three hotel loan closings—two SBA 7(a) financings and one conventional loan—for Suburban Studios, WoodSpring Suites, and Baymont Inn & Suites across Florida, North Dakota, and Tennessee.

While each transaction represented a different hotel owner, the Suburban Studios and WoodSpring Suites acquisitions originated from the same seller, reflecting the confidence our industry relationships inspire and our ability to successfully execute multiple transactions within a single disposition portfolio.

Strategically located in three distinct hospitality markets, these assets benefit from Pensacola’s military and Gulf Coast tourism economy, Minot’s Bakken energy sector and workforce demand, and the Knoxville MSA’s healthcare, education, and interstate commercial corridors.

Leveraging our nationwide lender network and hospitality-focused investment banking expertise, PCG structured financing solutions that delivered high leverage, substantial PIP funding, and long-term capital flexibility, enabling each sponsor to preserve liquidity while executing renovation plans and long-term growth strategies.

Whether financing a single acquisition or multiple transactions across different markets, Pineapple Capital Group continues to deliver creative capital solutions, disciplined ex*****on, and institutional-quality financing tailored to the evolving needs of hotel owners nationwide.
