The lodging industry's Internet Web
presence substantially expanded earlier this summer with the birth of Innvest: America's Hotel On-line Superstore.
Innvest is the venture of longtime hotel industry
executive Jeff Wilder, award-winning broker Deirdre Murphy, CHB, and Net
Properties Corp., a firm specializing in upper-echelon Internet real estate marketing.
The goal of Innvest is nothing short of providing a central cyberspace meeting
ground for all commercial activity being transacted for the lodging industry.
"Just Imagine being able to visit a hotel superstore where everything you require
is under one roof and is easily accessible," says Wilder. "There you can view hundreds
of recently listed acquisitions opportunities, check out the present lending appetite of
industry financing sources and comparisons shop the lodging industry's numerous
product and
service providers - all from the comfort of your home or office."
With Innvest users will be able to download information from the Internet directly
to their computers, printers or fax machines, including hotel deal information, lender
specs, and loan forms. No more thumbing through a variety of sources to locate a variety
of service Providers. Innvest's Goals is to be a sophisticated Lodging Industry Yellow
Pages.
An integral part of the site will be hotel listings; Innvest recently announced that
the Hotel & Motel Broker of America (HMBA) voted to endorse the site as it's official
Internet Web Home.
"We see Innvest as a first-class, interactive, cutting-edge location that will, over
time, draw large numbers of prospective buyers looking for hotels," says HMBA
marketing director Sharon Rall Lemon.
