RICHMOND, Va., Dec. 18, 2018 /PRNewswire/ -- Lingerfelt Commonwealth Partners, LLC, a Richmond, Virginia-based commercial real estate investment firm, today announced a portfolio sale of five hotels in Orlando, Florida, Atlanta, Georgia, and Charlotte, North Carolina, which closed on December 13, 2018.  The hotels were sold by Lingerfelt Commonwealth to AD1 Global, a privately-held hospitality company located in Hollywood, Florida, for $92.5 million.  The portfolio, totaling 758 rooms, is comprised of premium hotels within the Marriott International (NASDAQ: MAR) and Hilton Worldwide (NYSE: HLT) select service and full-service brands, as further described below.  Lingerfelt Commonwealth acquired the hotels in January 2015 for $68.5 million.

Commonwealth Lodging Management, a hospitality management and consulting affiliate of Lingerfelt Commonwealth Partners based in Hampton Roads, VA, managed all operations and repositioning of the hotels over the last three years, including comprehensive renovations totaling nearly $8.5 million.  "The significant reinvestment in these properties, along with strong leadership teams in place at each location, positioned these assets as top performers in their respective markets," said Duane Gauthier, Managing Director of Commonwealth Lodging.  "It was an incredible opportunity to have this portfolio of hotels under the Commonwealth Lodging umbrella and we know they are poised for continued success."

"We initially identified this portfolio of hotels as an opportunity to acquire well-maintained assets, below replacement cost, with great brands in strong markets that we believed were likely to benefit from continued long-term growth," said J. Ryan Lingerfelt, President and Chief Investment Officer of Lingerfelt Commonwealth.  "Over the last several years, Commonwealth Lodging successfully implemented our strategic renovation and repositioning plan, resulting in significant long-term improvement to average daily rates, guest satisfaction ratings, and average occupancy.  This is an opportune time to sell this portfolio and we are excited to deliver exceptional value to our investors."
