At Rangewell, we work with hotel owners to find and secure the finance that suits them, including when it comes time to refinance. 

So, if you are ready to refinance or simply want to know if it is the best route for your business, get in touch with Rangewell today.

How hotel refinance loans work

Hotel refinance allows us to replace an existing loan, or multiple loans, with a new financial arrangement. The new loan will pay off the current debt and possible release new funds, depending on the individual refinance product and what you are eligible for. 

You may refinance with the same lender, but we recommend exploring the whole of market to ensure you are getting the best deal, especially since there has been so much change in the industry in recent years. When it comes time to refinance, you benefit greatly from working with an independent broker like Rangewell, as our team of advisors has supported similar businesses to yours throughout the pandemic and we know the most common challenges and risks facing your hotel. 

We understand what lenders want to know, and how to ensure all of the information is covered in your business plan. We're more than just brokers; we are a knowledgeable team of experts who work alongside hoteliers to apply for and secure finance that meets your needs. 

Refinancing should aim to improve your financial position by providing you with better terms or finance features that help you work towards your future business goals. 

Speak to Rangewell today to find out whether it's time to refinance your hotel loans. 

Debt consolidation for hotels

One reason to refinance is to consolidate debt. This is particularly common for businesses that have taken out several different finance products, particularly on a short term basis such bridging loans.

During the pandemic, many hotel businesses struggled with cash flow as guests were no longer able to visit but there were still significant outgoings, such as utility bills and staff wages. Government funding only stretched so far for hotel investors and owners, so many of them turned to short term finance products to cover the necessary costs of keeping the business in the black.

Why consolidate debt?

Reduce outgoings: If you have large monthly payments on high-interest rates then you might find it hard to pay your current finance, so debt consolidation can help to reduce the payments and either improve the terms or spread payments across a longer period of time. 

Release funds: By exchanging your current arrangement for better terms, you can improve cash flow and release funds to invest in your hotel development plans. 

Reduce monthly payments: One of the main reasons why hoteliers choose to refinance is to reduce and consolidate debt into more affordable monthly payments.

Benefit from better terms: Particularly important if you took out finance during the pandemic, you may now be able to access lower interest rates from different lenders.

Prolong repayment period: Give yourself longer to repay debt

Access additional funds: By consolidating your debt into smaller monthly payments, you may now be able to afford additional finance to help achieve your business goals.

Whatever your reason for refinancing, make sure you have the experts on your side. Speak to Rangewell today about whether debt consolidation is right for you and to kick-start the refinancing process. 

When to Refinance Your Hotel

There are many reasons why a hotel owner may choose to refinance. Here are some of the common scenarios in which refinancing can be beneficial to hoteliers:

1. You find debt repayment is impacting the daily operations and growth plans for your business

2. You took out finance during turbulent economic times and settled for less-than-ideal rates

3. You plan to raise additional funds to invest in your business. For example, you are hoping to refurbish or invest in another property to add to your portfolio.

Hotel Financing - Purchase and Refinance

One of the most common reasons hoteliers consider refinance is when they are looking to purchase a further hotel, or when they are looking to buy a competitor.

Rangewell works with lenders that can provide 100% finance to successful hotel operators who are expanding - often with interest only finance for the first 18 months

To find out whether refinancing is a possible option for you, get in touch with Rangewell today, and we will take a look at your current finance arrangements and help you figure out the best next steps for your business.

Frequently asked questions

Have a question?

How do I get financing for a hotel?

Hotel mortgages will be assessed on a case by case basis, but typically the following factors will determine how favourable a lender will view a commercial hotel lending application.

Industry experience 

A lender will want to know how much experience you have, specifically working in the hotel environment; the more experience you have, the more favourable your application will be. 

If you plan to leave your hotel's day-to-day management to someone else, your lender will scrutinise your hiring strategy and may adjust your loan to value amount accordingly. 

The lender will also want to see that all the appropriate food hygiene and licenses are in place and up to date. 

Occupancy rates

The business's profitability will rely on the occupancy rate if the revenues per available room (RevPAR) and average daily rates (ADR) are positive for lenders.

Trading accounts

Most lenders are likely to want to see at least two years of trading history. 

Business and marketing plans 

Most businesses won't survive in an online world without a solid marketing strategy. 

Location

Location can plan a massive part in the success of a business. If your hotel is close to transport hubs, office buildings, and entertainment centres) then this could plan a significant factor in its profitability. 

Out of all of the things above, the experience could play the biggest party. The more knowledge you have in the hospitality field, the more you'll show you can influence profitability.

Can you refinance a commercial property?

Yes, you can refinance a commercial property to reduce the cost of an existing mortgage, by remortgaging and taking a new deal with a lower rate or longer term, or to raise cash by taking out on a property you already own..

When should you refinance?

You may want to refinance when your busieness needs additional cash or when you beleive that your current loan commitments are too high, and could be reduced by switching to another lender, with a better rate or longer term.

How does refinancing a building work?

Refinancing means getting a new mortgage to replace the original and is done to allow a borrower to obtain a better interest term and rate. The first loan is paid off, with a second loan arranged on more favourable terms.

Is refinancing a bad idea?

One of the most common reasons to refinance is to lower interest rates on your existing loan. Refinancing is a good idea if you can reduce your interest rate by 2%. However, lenders say 1% savings is enough of an incentive to refinance. 

Why do businesses refinance?

You may want to refinance your business to get a better loan rate and reduce your overall repayments, get a longer term to reduce your monthly outgoings or to bring in additional cash with a larger loan.
