Based on soft-quote and term-sheet loan quotes on hospitality properties nationally, priced as permanent financing, from May through August 2026. This pool spans limited-service hotels, boutique hotels, extended stay, suite hotels, and motels.
Fixed-rate quotes in this pool run from 6.05% to 7.40%, with a median of 6.75%. Floating-rate quotes, presented separately, range from 6.15% to 11.16%, with a median of 7.60% — a much wider spread and a fatter right tail than fixed, consistent with hospitality's opportunistic/bridge-adjacent skew even within permanent financing. LTV has a median of 65% (40%–80%). DSCR requirements run from 1.20x to 1.50x, with a median of 1.30x. Of the quotes where recourse type was specified, the large majority carry full recourse, with a small share carrying a burn-off structure; separately, nearly all carry personal recourse guarantees.
Geographically, this pool is concentrated in Texas and California, with smaller clusters in Florida, Michigan, and a handful of other states.
Amortization schedules most commonly run 25 years, with a meaningful share also running 20 years. An interest-only period appears on only a small handful of quotes (24 months each) — IO is uncommon in this pool relative to some other property types. Loan sizes in this pool range from $1,000,000 to $10,000,000, with a median loan amount of $2,493,750.
