Hire · not a brochure
Process before the compliment
Match the desk to the species of hotel. A trophy and a Hampton do not share a banker. Harbor will not invent a producer, a cell, or a league table. This folio is process help, not a cold list.
I · Source
Attach from a public page
A desk appears when a press release, 8-K, or firm page names the house. Harbor will not invent a producer to fill a row.
II · Practice desk
Firm when the roster is not ours
CBRE Hotels Americas and HWE Atlanta stand in when Harbor will not publish a private cell. Deal credit still needs a source.
III · Finding
A quiet year is a finding
Years with no attached tape stay blank. That is not a void to fill with a league table.
IV · Comps
Name the comparable set first
Segment, keys, region, affiliation. If they cannot say which tapes have public prices, they are selling atmosphere.
V · Conflict
Ask the conflict sentence
Who else do they represent on this asset or this buyer? Undisclosed dual agency is how you pay twice.
VI · Engagement
Read it as a contract
Tail, protection list, co-broker, marketing spend, and whether they can be the buyer. A handshake is not a hire.

Hilton New Orleans St. Charles — Sunstone disposition
Hilton New Orleans St. Charles · 252 keys · Upper upscale
Consideration
$47.0M
$187k / key
Sunstone IR: $47 million gross for the 252-room Hilton New Orleans St. Charles. CBD box — not a French Quarter irreplaceable.
Sunstone Hotel Investors IR / PR Newswire, June 9, 2025 (Q2 close dated June 5)
Sunstone’s Q2 2025 release dates the close to June 5, 2025 at a contractual $47.0 million, or about $187,000 per key. Harbor PPK is $47 million ÷ 252. Sunstone’s 10.1x / 8.7% lines and the 13.4x / 6.6% after estimated near-term capex are Sunstone’s narrative, not a second price. Insurance and flood belong next to any number you type yourself.
