What is the "theory" behind the building and selling and re-selling of hotels.
Seems to me that a hotel chain will build a new hotel somewhere, open it, run it,
never do any maintainence or upkeep, then just before it becomes a dump, they sell it. The "new" company will make the required upgrades/maintenance, open it,
run it, never do any maintainence or upkeep, sell it and the whole process continues over and over. Am I right and why ?
.
Lots of examples come to mind; one in this area was initially a high rise Mariott.
Very nice to begin with; then became run down and was sold to another chain.
Now it's back to being a Mariott again !
