SERVICES FOR INNKEEPERS

A call to Bill or Heide will help define your specific needs (802-257-2360). If you own an inn, you need to have an exit strategy. We believe we can provide appropriate and cost effective help at all stages of the process.

1. Overview Evaluation

   Inn Partners Bill Oates and Heide Bredfeldt visit the Inn and provide a critique of operations as they impact value, business and future transition.

   Inn Partners will also review financial statements, compare to standard costs and provide advice, direction and suggestions for enhancing profitability.

   Fee for this service is $75.00 per guest room plus $500.00 for a full service Inn. (Minimum Fee is $1,000.00. Maximum is $1,500.00.) All fees are credited to the cost of additional services.

2. Assessment of Market Value

   This uses methodology which blends financial ratio analysis with Asset replacement value. The process identifies specific assets which add or detract from overall economic value.

   Fee for this service is $200 per room plus $1,000.00 for a full dinner service Inn. Minimum is $2,000.00. Maximum is $3,500.00 with credit for any Overview Evaluation fees paid.
