Mastering the Hotel PIP Process: A Guide for Owners

A step-by-step guide to managing Property Improvement Plans. Negotiating with brands and timing your renovation cycle.

A Property Improvement Plan (PIP) is a requirement for maintaining your hotel franchise flag. It can be a massive expense, but managed correctly, it increases RevPAR significantly and extends the life of your asset.

The key is negotiation. Before you sign the PIP, have a contractor like Apex review it. We can often argue against unnecessary structural changes by proving that existing conditions meet code or that a cheaper cosmetic fix achieves the brand intent.

We strictly manage the construction timeline to ensure rooms are back online before peak season hits, minimizing revenue displacement during the renovation.
