Acorus launches technical and budgetary evaluation activity for hotels before acquisition

With 15 years of expertise in the hospitality sector, Acorus now offers a diagnostic and work estimation service prior to the acquisition of a hotel establishment. The objective: to help investors anticipate the financial envelope for the work to be planned, whether it involves compliance, energy renovation (particularly within the framework of the tertiary decree), safety improvements, or aesthetic refreshes.

Technical and field expertise to make the investment more reliable

In practice, a team of experts travels with the client to the targeted establishment for a complete technical visit. On site, they assess:

• the condition of the networks (plumbing, electricity, HVAC),
• compliance requirements (fire safety, accessibility, etc.),
• the energy performance potential (insulation, heating, etc.),
• asbestos and lead diagnostics,
• and the modernization or redevelopment work to be planned.

Everything is synthesized into a realistic budget estimate, structured according to the priorities and objectives of the project, to allow the buyer to integrate the right work ratios into their financing plan, from the very first negotiations.

Already several references in the sector

This offering has already attracted several industry players, such as Edgar Suites and the Saint-Lazare Villathena Hotel, who have contacted Acorus for pre-purchase audits. Thanks to this approach, they were able to better anticipate their work, secure their investment, and accelerate the transformation phase.

For Jean-Philippe Brulé, Director of Hospitality and Services at Acorus: "In a dynamic but constrained hotel market, many investors need clarity and reliability regarding the construction side of things. With our experience in complex renovations, particularly on occupied sites, we are able to provide a highly operational perspective, as close to reality as possible."

A response to the new challenges of the tertiary sector

Beyond acquisition projects, this expertise is also aimed at hotel operators who wish to comply with the tertiary decree, undertake an ambitious energy renovation or even reassess their real estate assets from a heritage perspective.
