Who We Are

The Audience Nobody Else Bothered to Build

Hospitality real estate is one of the most fragmented, opaque, and underserved asset classes in North America. A fishing lodge on Crown tenure in Saskatchewan, a fly-in operation in the Northwest Territories, a roadside motel in the BC Interior, an RV park in Montana — these properties trade infrequently, value unevenly, and rarely get serious editorial coverage. Generalist real estate media ignores them. Generalist marketplaces bury them.

Frontier Hospitality Advisor was built to be the opposite: a single destination where the entire hospitality property ecosystem — owners, buyers, investors, lenders, and the agents who serve them — gets market data, active listings, and expert analysis specific to this asset class. Since 2016 we have published a growing library of valuation and transaction intelligence, built a qualified subscriber base of 3,200+ buyers, sellers, and investors, and operated the most focused hospitality property marketplace in the country — now expanding across North America.

What makes our content different is what sits underneath it: a proprietary database of real appraisal and transaction data, built assignment by assignment by our founder, an AACI-designated appraiser. We don't aggregate other people's headlines. We publish from the file.

03 — MEDIA

Market Intelligence

The Intelligence Engine

An Active Appraisal Practice Powers Everything We Publish

Frontier Hospitality Advisor is the only hospitality real estate media platform in North America anchored by a working appraisal practice. Our founder, Bryce Witherspoon, holds the AACI designation — the highest appraisal credential awarded by the Appraisal Institute of Canada — and continues to complete CUSPAP-compliant going-concern and insurance replacement cost appraisals for lodges, resorts, RV parks, hotels, and motels.

Every assignment adds verified income, expense, and sale data to a proprietary database that no competing publication, marketplace, or brokerage can replicate. That database is why our valuation articles cite real GRM ranges instead of guesses, and why lenders, lawyers, and the CRA accept our reports.

Appraisal Services

Going-concern market value — the lodge, resort, hotel, or motel valued as a complete operating business: land, buildings, chattels, licences, and goodwill. Required for financing, purchase and sale, CRA, estate, litigation, and expropriation purposes.

Insurance replacement cost — defensible insurable value of physical improvements at current material and labour costs. Most hospitality owners need both. Most have neither done properly.

Founder

Bryce Witherspoon, BA, AACI, P. App

Frontier Hospitality Advisor was founded in 2016 by Bryce Witherspoon, an AACI-designated commercial appraiser based in Penticton, British Columbia. After years of appraising lodges, resorts, hotels, and motels across Western and Northern Canada — and watching owners struggle to find credible information or a real audience of buyers — he built the platform he couldn't find: part marketplace, part publication, part appraisal practice.

Bryce remains the principal appraiser and editorial voice behind the platform's market intelligence. He holds a BA from Lakehead University, the AACI and P. App designations from the Appraisal Institute of Canada (Member #908111), and completes all appraisal work under CUSPAP standards.
