Common Questions
Hospitality Real Estate — Frequently Asked Questions
Expert answers to the most common questions about buying, selling, and appraising hospitality properties across Canada.
How do I sell my lodge or fishing camp in Canada?
Selling a lodge or fishing camp starts with establishing current market value through a professional appraisal by an AACI-designated appraiser. From there, you can list confidentially or publicly — reaching Frontier Hospitality Advisor’s 3,200+ qualified buyers across North America through targeted listings and monthly newsletters.
What does a hospitality property appraisal cost in Canada?
Hospitality appraisal fees vary based on property complexity, location, and intended use of the report (financing, CRA, estate, sale). Because these are specialty assignments requiring an AACI designation, fees reflect the significant research and expertise involved. Contact us for a fee estimate specific to your property.
What is an AACI appraiser and why does it matter?
AACI (Accredited Appraiser Canadian Institute) is the highest designation granted by the Appraisal Institute of Canada. For bank financing, estate planning, CRA submissions, litigation, or expropriation involving lodges, resorts, hotels, or motels — an AACI-designated appraiser is typically required by lenders and government bodies.
What factors determine the market value of a lodge or resort?
Key value drivers include Crown land or tenure security, annual revenue and EBITDA, guest capacity, access type (road vs. fly-in), location and natural resource quality, capital improvements, and operator transition risk. A qualified AACI appraiser analyzes all of these factors under CUSPAP standards to produce a defensible, credible opinion of value.
Where can I find lodges and resorts for sale in Canada?
Frontier Hospitality Advisor maintains an active database of fishing lodges, hunting camps, wilderness resorts, and fly-in operations for sale across British Columbia, Ontario, Manitoba, Quebec, Alberta, and beyond. New listings are added regularly and circulated to all newsletter subscribers monthly.
Do I need a specialist agent to buy a hospitality property?
Strongly recommended. Hospitality transactions involve Crown land tenures, operating permits, liquor licences, and detailed business financials that general residential agents typically lack the experience to navigate. A hospitality-specialized agent protects your interests through every stage of due diligence and closing.
Can I advertise my property for sale on Frontier Hospitality?
Yes. Frontier Hospitality Advisor accepts listing advertising for lodges, resorts, hotels, and motels across Canada. Your property is seen by tens of thousands of interested buyers — on-site and via monthly newsletter distribution.
What is the difference between a lodge appraisal and a hotel appraisal?
Lodge and resort appraisals focus on Crown tenure security, outfitting rights, seasonality, and remote access factors. Hotel and motel appraisals prioritize RevPAR, average daily rate (ADR), occupancy rates, and flag or franchise positioning. Both require an appraiser with specific hospitality real estate expertise and an AACI designation for complex assignments.
