Our clients set out to buy two Florida hotels at once, both out of a receivership sale. This is the first of the two: a select service hotel carrying a national flag. The second, a conversion, closed two weeks later. 🎉

Buying out of receivership rewards buyers who can move with certainty. The seller is a court-appointed receiver, timelines are set by the process rather than negotiated, and financing contingencies get very little sympathy. Our clients needed a lender who could underwrite two hotel acquisitions in parallel and commit to both.

Krishan Patel, Managing Director of GRP Capital, stated, “Our clients had a clear plan and the experience to execute it, and the job was to build a structure that gave the property room to be renovated before it had to perform. The interest reserve is what makes a deal like this work. Without it you are asking a hotel to service full debt while half of it is out of service. Getting the brand’s approval on the renovation before we closed took the biggest unknown off the table for the lender.”

Effective October 1, 2026, the U.S. Small Business Administration (SBA) introduced lower fees for certain borrowers this fiscal year. Here’s what you need to know:

The SBA is waiving its guaranty fees on 504 loans to rural businesses, manufacturers, and certain food-supply businesses. ➡️ For 7(a) loans of $700,000 or less, the upfront fee is zero for those same qualifying businesses.

Some standards became stricter, including stronger cash flow requirements for business acquisitions, so how your loan request is packaged matters more than ever.

We are happy to share another successful hotel refinance! 🎉 Ryan Dumas’ client has an independent hotel in central Texas. The owner and her late husband had been operating the hotel for a number of years. They had a private mortgage and wanted to refinance to a more traditional mortgage.

Independent hotels often face some barriers in securing financing, but our GRP Capital team was able to find a lender and secure an SBA 7a loan. Ryan was particularly pleased that this SBA loan closed in under 60 days. Truly, this was proof that quick closings can still occur with an SBA product!

Ryan described the closing, saying, “𝐈 𝐞𝐧𝐣𝐨𝐲𝐞𝐝 𝐠𝐞𝐭𝐭𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐭𝐨 𝐤𝐧𝐨𝐰 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐨𝐰𝐧𝐞𝐫 𝐚𝐧𝐝 𝐡𝐞𝐫 𝐬𝐨𝐧. 𝐓𝐡𝐞𝐲 𝐡𝐚𝐯𝐞 𝐛𝐞𝐞𝐧 𝐰𝐨𝐫𝐤𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐭𝐨𝐠𝐞𝐭𝐡𝐞𝐫 𝐭𝐨 𝐦𝐚𝐢𝐧𝐭𝐚𝐢𝐧 𝐚𝐧𝐝 𝐦𝐚𝐫𝐤𝐞𝐭 𝐭𝐡𝐢𝐬 𝐢𝐧𝐝𝐞𝐩𝐞𝐧𝐝𝐞𝐧𝐭 𝐡𝐨𝐭𝐞𝐥.

Bridge loans can be a great stepping stone on the way to your bigger goals. 🌉 GRP Capital has assisted many of our clients with securing bridge financing over the years. Here are some things to remember as you consider this option:

𝗕𝗿𝗶𝗱𝗴𝗲 𝗹𝗼𝗮𝗻𝘀 𝗯𝘂𝘆 𝘁𝗶𝗺𝗲. A bridge loan is short term, typically twelve to twenty-four months, and lets you acquire or reposition now and refinance once the numbers support it.

𝗦𝗽𝗲𝗲𝗱 𝗶𝘀 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗮𝗱𝘃𝗮𝗻𝘁𝗮𝗴𝗲. Bridge lenders can often move faster than SBA or conventional lenders. When a purchase depends on a tight closing, that speed can be the difference between getting the property and losing it.

𝗣𝗿𝗶𝗰𝗲 𝗿𝗲𝗳𝗹𝗲𝗰𝘁𝘀 𝗳𝗹𝗲𝘅𝗶𝗯𝗶𝗹𝗶𝘁𝘆. Bridge rates run higher than SBA or conventional rates. That premium buys speed, flexibility, and a structure that fits complex ownership. Build the cost into your business plan and your exit.

𝗛𝗮𝘃𝗲 𝗮𝗻 𝗲𝘅𝗶𝘁 𝗶𝗻 𝗺𝗶𝗻𝗱. The strongest bridge borrowers know how they will get out, usually a refinance after stabilization. Plan the exit before you take the loan, not after.

Our GRP team is excited to share a successful closing for our Miami client! 🌴

Picture a boutique hotel a block from the ocean on Miami Beach, its Art Deco lines catching the South Beach light. Our clients, an experienced investment group and repeat clients of GRP Capital, were ready to add this property to their portfolio, and they wanted to move quickly.

Boutique hotels in premier markets like Miami Beach are prized assets, but they can be tricky to finance. The purchase price reflects the location and the upside, and the ownership was organized as an investment fund, a structure that not every lender wants to underwrite. Speed mattered too. Our clients needed to close on a tight timeline to secure the property.

A bridge loan was the right tool. Bridge financing gave the borrowers the speed and flexibility to acquire the asset now and execute their business plan, with a clear path to permanent financing once the property stabilizes. GRP Capital placed the sub-$10 million loan with a lender who knew the market and could close fast.

Another successful closing in the books for GRP Capital! ✨ Our client partners had their eyes on a Maine hotel located in a charming New England town with a nearby college. One of the partners is already experienced in the New England hospitality business. He even recently closed another hotel purchase with GRP Capital. He and his partner thought that this Maine hotel was just what they were after: a stable hotel that could quickly become more profitable.

Ryan Dumas, Senior Associate was very pleased to close this loan: “𝗜 𝗸𝗻𝗼𝘄 𝗼𝗻𝗲 𝗼𝗳 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗽𝗮𝗿𝘁𝗻𝗲𝗿𝘀 𝗿𝗲𝗮𝗹𝗹𝘆 𝘄𝗲𝗹𝗹. 𝗛𝗲’𝘀 𝗵𝗼𝗻𝗲𝘀𝘁 𝗮𝗻𝗱 𝗮 𝗴𝗼𝗼𝗱 𝗯𝘂𝘀𝗶𝗻𝗲𝘀𝘀 𝗽𝗲𝗿𝘀𝗼𝗻.
