Services
RDC provides a specialized range of advisory and consulting services to the hospitality, real estate and tourism industries, including:
Market Feasibility Analysis
Market Feasibility Studies conducted by Resort Development Consultants consists of an in-depth analysis of financial projections and modeling based off of market trends. RDC evaluates the level of market support for a resort or hotel development project considering the suitability of the site, current and future demand in the market area, assessment of existing and potential competitive supply, and evaluation of the market share that could be reasonably attained by the subject property.
Financial Feasibility Analysis
Our hotel consulting firm determines the financial viability of a hotel development project based on analysis of the estimated cost of the project, application of a financing plan, and projected cash flow and profitability relative to the investment required. RDC conducts financial feasibility analysis for hotel and resort development as well as public and private sector tourism development initiatives.
Redevelopment Analysis and Implementation Strategies
To determine the potential for redevelopment, revitalization, or development of infill projects, Resort Development Consultants will complete a redevelopment analysis and construct implementation strategies surrounding the logistics of the project. Much like our market feasibility analysis, redevelopment plans are carried out with the current and future market in mind. Development analysis will determine whether or not the level of potential market support will generate sufficient return on investment based on all of the above factors.
Asset Management and Operational Consulting
Asset management and operational consulting through RDC provides a clinical third-party assessment of property operations with a focus on improving profitability and asset value. Our hotel consulting firm provides asset management and advisory services for public institutions, private equity investors, as well as institutional lenders.
