Frequently asked questions about buying a condo hotel

I hear the term "condo-hotel" often. What does it mean?
The term condo-hotel refers to an often large, luxury hotel that is generally operated by an outside company. Each condo is sold to an investor that may use it as a vacation home at any time throughout the year. When the investor is not using his condo, it may be rented out as a hotel unit.


Is Orlando a good place to purchase a unit in a condo-hotel?
Approximately 55% of all condo-hotels are located in Florida and Nevada. Some of the factors include the beach, warm weather, area attractions and conventions, as well as top rated restaurants and theaters. These desirable locations allow maximum return on investment as hotels run higher occupancy throughout the year.


What do I get out of owning a unit in a condo-hotel resort?
How about the option to use a luxury vacation home in one of the top destination locations in the world at any time you like, with the ability to generate income with no effort on your part? The role of the company that runs the resort will rent out and maintain your condo while it’s being used as a hotel suite. When you’re there, it’s like owning a home where you have access to all of the benefits of a luxury resort like world class dining, spa services and much more.


How much does a unit cost?
Prices for luxury units in upscale condo-hotels range from $550,000 up to $3,000,000 or more Obviously the most desirable units sit at the high end of the scale and allow for a greater appreciation of your investment.


Can I finance my investment?
There are several lenders who are prepared to discuss financing options. Condo hotels are becoming one of the hottest trends in the marketplace.


Can I rent out my own unit when I’m not using it?
You are likely to generate more income by using the onsite management company who has constant access to reservations systems and a professional staff available to assist potential renters. Additionally, having someone else handle the responsibilities of filling reservations requests allows you worry free ownership.


Are there restrictions on when I can and cannot use the condo?
There are a few restrictions on when you are able to use the condo.  Remember, the condo is intended to
be a vacation or secondary home. If condo units were utilized full-time or near-full time by their owners, availability to offer them for hotel use would be greatly limited, thereby reducing their income potential. This is, after all, a potential investment.


Can you give me an example of what might be included in agreements between the condo-hotel buyer and the management company?

     Some basics include the following:

• The percentage of revenue that goes to the condo-hotel owner and what percentage goes to the management company.
• What is deducted from income, like costs for furniture, equipment and such?
• Who will be responsible for real estate taxes, insurance, etc.?
• Who pays for operating expenses?
• Specifics on when the owner may and may not occupy their unit. 

Do living restrictions hurt the value at resale time?
Most condo-hotels have living restrictions so it is generally common practice, and most buyers are investment minded anyway. If a buyer wanted a full time residence, a condominium would likely be a more appropriate choice.
