We’ve sat on your side of the table.
Fintel is led by an active hospitality and commercial real estate professional — someone who has underwritten hotel deals, negotiated franchise terms, worked through land transactions, and stood in front of city councils to get projects approved. Not theory. Real deals.
That background shapes everything we do. When we review your books, we know what an auditor looks for in a cash-intensive business. When we look at your next acquisition, we underwrite it the way an institutional buyer would — because we’ve done exactly that.
And we come from the same community we serve. We know the journey from the first gas station to the first hotel, because we’ve watched families make it — and we know where that journey goes wrong when nobody gives you a straight answer.
Straight answers
If a deal is bad, we say so. If a service isn’t worth paying for, we tell you. A fast, honest no is worth more than a slow, expensive maybe.
Firsthand experience
We only advise on what we know from the inside — hotels, gas stations, c-stores, restaurants, and retail centers.
The right connections
Where we’re not the expert, we know exactly who is — vetted lenders, brokers, CPAs, and attorneys, with our role disclosed up front.
