Canada's vast geography and abundant natural beauty make it a prime destination for travelers exploring the great outdoors. This creates ample opportunities for entrepreneurs interested in capitalizing on the strong tourism industry by purchasing an existing motel business. When looking for motels for sale in Canada, prospective buyers should focus on key factors like:
Location - Proximity to major highways, tourist attractions, and amenities
Property condition - Age of buildings, necessary renovations
Local market - Competitiveness, target customer demographics
Financials - Past revenue and operating costs
Thoroughly evaluating these aspects can help determine if a motel will likely provide good value and return on investment.
A busy motel is a successful motel. That’s why some of the top-performing motels in Canada are located on Highway 2, Highway 3, Highway 14, Highway 16, and Highway 17. Some other desirable areas to consider include:
British Columbia - Highways 3, 5, and 97 provide access to mountains and beaches
Alberta - Major cities like Calgary and Edmonton and proximity to the Rockies
Ontario - Highways 11, 17, and 69 stretch through lakeside cottages and parks
Quebec - Scenic routes like Highway 20 approaching Quebec City and Charlevoix
Nova Scotia - Coastal highways leading to the Bay of Fundy, Cabot Trail, and more
Pro tip: Check municipal development plans to avoid buying in areas with potential future zoning changes or land restrictions.
When evaluating potential motel purchases in Canada, prospective buyers should carefully examine the following:
Location - Finding a property near major highways, tourist sights, and amenities can drive higher occupancy and room rates.
Condition - Older properties may require plumbing, electrical or HVAC upgrades—factor in room renovation costs.
Market dynamics - Research current and forecasted demand and average daily rates for the area. Analyze local events, attractions, and transportation access bringing travelers to that market.
Financials - Review historical revenues, operating expenses, profit margins, and seasonality. Scrutinize previous ownership's projections.
Pinpointing the right location is critical to maximizing occupancy and room rates.Ideal properties have high visibility and easy access to highways and airports is ideal, like the motels for sale in Chetwynd, BC.
British Columbia, Nova Scotia, Alberta, and Ontario traditionally offer strong motel locations near popular tourist regions and have various resorts for sale. Also, research the local amenities, events, and attractions motels can benefit from. Proximity to restaurants, shops, parks, sporting events, and conferences can help fill rooms.
Drive the area during the peak season to see traffic patterns and feel the vibe. Crunching numbers on past performance means little if the fundamentals of the location are not strong.
While cosmetic renovations like new paint or furniture are relatively affordable, major upgrades to plumbing, HVAC, electrical, or roofing can require significant capital.
Inspect the physical premises and equipment thoroughly or hire experienced contractors to identify any issues. Obtain disclosures about known defects.
Consider long-term cap ex needs for regular maintenance. Ensure compliance with safety codes and accessibility regulations. An ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure when it comes to avoiding big surprise repair bills down the road.
In addition to ingress/egress and area attractions, investigate demand generators like local industries, event venues, and transportation options. Look at both current and forecasted conditions.
For example, is a new convention center being built nearby that will draw more corporate travelers? Is an existing manufacturing plant at risk of closing? Tracking occupancy, average daily rates, and RevPAR for comparable area motel businesses can indicate the market's profit potential.
Compiling data on seasonality and midweek vs. weekend patterns is also helpful for revenue projections.
Request at least 3 years of income statements, balance sheets, cash flow statements, and tax returns from the seller.
Dig into details on revenues, expenses, operating margins, profitability trends, and earning potential.
Validate the accuracy of provided figures. Assess the business's assets and liabilities. Develop different models for best and worst-case scenarios.
A motel's past financials always provide key insights into its prospects.
Purchasing an existing motel business involves more than just the sale price. Be prepared for expenses like inspections, financing, renovations, and operating costs.
The seller's asking price provides a starting point for negotiation. But take steps to determine fair market value:
Review recent sales of comparable properties based on size, age, location, and amenities.
Calculate the price per room and compare it against market norms. For example, a considerable variance could indicate issues if the average price/room is $200k.
Factor in any significant repairs or renovations above and beyond typical maintenance. This should reduce fair value.
Scrutinize historical revenues and operating expenses. If profitability is below average, negotiate a lower price.
Consider intangibles like existing brand name, loyal customer base, and potential expansion opportunities that could command a premium valuation.
Assess current economic conditions influencing valuations like rising interest rates or recession risks.
Hiring a commercial real estate appraiser can provide an independent, expert valuation opinion to support negotiations. This upfront cost is minor compared to overpaying.
Leave yourself bargaining room to walk away rather than overstretching on price.
Thorough property inspections by qualified professionals help identify defects and necessary repairs. Budget $5,000-$10,000 for assessments like:
Structural and roof - Look for cracked foundations, deteriorated load-bearing elements, and leaky roofs. These can require significant repairs.
Electrical, plumbing, HVAC - Faulty wiring, corroded pipes, and outdated HVAC systems can create fire risks and comfort issues.
Environmental - Test for mold, asbestos, and radon, which may require remediation.
ADA compliance - Ensure sufficient handicap-accessible rooms, entry ramps, and door clearances.
Fire safety - Confirm functioning alarms, sprinklers, and emergency exits to meet codes.
Septic tank - Inspect capacity and condition for remote locations.
Parking lot - Evaluate pavement condition, drainage, and striping.
Crime prevention - Assess exterior lighting, keycard door locks, and security cameras.
Prioritize any deficiencies threatening safety, followed by those impacting operations. Negotiate repair credits from the seller where possible.
Typical financing sources include:
Commercial bank loans
Private lenders
Seller carry-back mortgage
It pays to shop for the best loan rates and terms tailored to your business plan. Consider factors like:
Interest rates - Compare rates from banks, credit unions, and private lenders. Weigh fixed vs. variable rates and implications for cash flow.
Down payment - Lenders may require 10-25% down. Weigh tradeoffs of higher down payments to secure better rates.
Amortization - Longer terms like 20-25 years reduce monthly payments but increase interest costs.
Pre-payment terms - Assess penalties for accelerated repayment in case you sell.
Collateral - Some lenders may require cross-collateralization across multiple property assets.
The ideal financing mix aligns with your growth strategy and cash flow capabilities. Consult commercial lending experts to map out optimal structures. Once you run the numbers, the lowest rate financing may not always fit.
Upgrade costs will depend on the property's condition. Budget for:
Cosmetic - paint, furniture
Electrical, plumbing, appliances
Lobby, pool, common areas
Signage, parking, landscaping
Not all upgrades are equal regarding return on investment (ROI). Prioritize enhancements that increase revenue or occupancy more than the capital outlay.
For example, refreshing dated room decor and furniture for $2,000 per room can often boost rates by $10-20. A new lobby facade and entrance sign visible from the highway may increase walk-ins and awareness.
But a luxury swimming pool costing $50,000 may do little to attract target customers or justify the expense. Focus first on fixes delivering the biggest bang for the buck.
Conducting ROI analysis on potential renovations can inform intelligent investment decisions. Move forward only on enhancements demonstrating a sound business case rather than chasing trends.
Recurring costs include:
Staff wages and benefits
Property maintenance and repairs
Utility bills - electric, water, heating
Insurance, licensing, taxes
Franchise or marketing fees
Reservations system, supplies
When reviewing historical financials, scrutinize both fixed and variable operating expense information. Drill into details on wage rates, maintenance and utility costs per room, franchise fees, and top expense categories. Compare against industry benchmarks.
Evaluate operating margins over the past 5 years - are profitability trends positive or negative? Verify significant capital investments like renovations that could alter expense patterns.
Also, scrutinize the seller's forward-looking projections. Do their forecasts for revenue growth and new construction seem realistic? Is inflation appropriately factored into future staffing and supplies budgets? Obtain documentation supporting their assumptions.
Operating expenses can make or break profitability. So rigorously vet both history and projections to avoid any unpleasant surprises.
Properly preparing to purchase an existing motel or construct a new one can make the venture successful.
Surround yourself with specialists who can provide expert guidance, data and information like:
Real estate agent - Local market knowledge, valuation, sales process.
Lawyer - Review contracts and licenses, and identify risks.
Accountant - Analyze financials, structuring, and taxes.
Consultants - Feasibility, valuations, marketing plan.
Contractors - Renovation estimates, project management.
Having aligned, experienced professionals ensure you consider all angles—discussing the need for staffing exploration and hospitality experience.
A detailed business plan is critical for buying or building a motel. Key elements to address include:
Positioning - Determine your desired competitive positioning for budget, mid-scale, and luxury. Align amenities, service levels, and branding accordingly.
Location analysis - Thoroughly assess traffic patterns, area demand generators, and competitors' positioning/occupancy in selected locations.
Competitive assessment - Research strengths and weaknesses of competitive properties based on guest reviews, amenities, pricing, and experiences staying onsite.
Facilities plan - Outline required renovations, planned amenities and offerings, room types, and F&B facilities to support positioning.
Management & staffing - Define organizational structure, key roles, and salary benchmarks. Hospitality experience is a must.
Marketing & partnerships - Describe target outreach channels like OTA listings, social media, and sales partnerships with complementary businesses.
Financials - Provide 5-year proforma P&L, balance sheet, and cash flow projections based on reasonable assumptions for the target market.
A well-developed plan allows you to spot any holes in strategy and creates an operating playbook. It also demonstrates business viability when seeking financing.
Purchasing an existing motel requires some licensing, but constructing a new build or extensively renovating will likely require:
Municipal business operating license - standard application and fee process
Fire and building permits - inspections to approve electrical, structural, HVAC
Health inspections - for any onsite food service facilities
Local hospitality tax registration - for collecting required occupancy taxes
Liquor license - if offering a bar/lounge area
Signage permits - for new exterior signage visibility
Factor 6-12 months to complete the paperwork maze, especially if new construction. Having consultants who understand local permit processes can accelerate approvals.
In addition to permits and licenses, it's essential to understand the web of laws and regulations impacting motel businesses in Canada. Failure to comply can result in fines or even force closure. Key areas to research include:
Zoning bylaws and land use restrictions - Ensure the property is properly zoned for commercial motel/hotel use. Redevelopment plans may impact future operations.
Employment laws - There are many requirements around minimum compensation, worker safety, benefits contributions, and taxes for staff.
Hospitality regulations - Provinces regulate the lodging sector through certification programs, inspections, and inventory reporting rules.
Tax obligations - At the federal, provincial, and municipal levels, motels must comply with income, sales, property, and tourism taxes.
Accessibility standards - Accommodation must be made for mobility, hearing, and visually impaired guests.
Food safety - Onsite restaurants require approvals and adherence to strict food handling procedures.
Building codes - Renovations and new construction must meet electrical, plumbing, and structural safety standards.
Environmental laws - Motels produce large volumes of laundry waste, pool chemicals, and other effluents requiring proper disposal.
Navigating the regulatory environment poses a hurdle for motel owners. Seeking guidance from specialized legal and accounting professionals is highly recommended.
Employing staff brings legal obligations like:
Minimum wage, overtime, and leave pay requirements
Anti-discrimination and human rights legislation
Workplace safety standards
Mandatory benefit contributions like employment insurance (EI), workers' compensation, Canada/Quebec pension plan
Income tax withholding and T4 reporting
Factor relevant taxes into planning like:
Business income taxes - federal and provincial corporate tax rates
Property taxes - the municipal tax on land and buildings
Commodity taxes - GST/HST on taxable goods and services
Excise taxes - on liquor sales, for example
Also, address industry-specific regulations like motel licensing requirements. Understanding Entrepreneurship Risks and Challenges
