INVESTMENT SUMMARY
Cushman & Wakefield has been exclusively retained to offer for sale the fee-simple interest in the 26-room The Postcard Motel (the “Hotel” or “Property”). The Property is located on the Historic Route 66 in Seligman, AZ.
- Iconic Route 66 Location: Situated directly on Historic Route 66 in Seligman—the internationally recognized “Birthplace of Route 66”—the Postcard Inn benefits from steady nostalgia-driven tourism, road-trip travelers, and international Route 66 visitors seeking an authentic Mother Road experience.
- Absentee Ownership Provides Value-Add Upside: Current absentee ownership creates meaningful upside opportunities through hands-on management, improved revenue optimization, dynamic pricing strategies, and tighter expense controls.
- Significant Recent Capital Improvements: Over $300,000 in capital expenditures has been invested in both interior and exterior renovations, including a new roof, washers and dryers, keypad entry locks, and four new water heaters. These improvements significantly reduce near-term capital expenditure requirements and operational risk.
- On-Site Manager's Suite Enhances Operating Efficiency: A dedicated manager’s suite located behind the front desk supports an owner-operator or resident manager model, reducing payroll and third-party management expenses while improving guest service, security, and operational oversight.
- Branding & Franchise Affiliation Opportunity: The property offers potential for rebranding or affiliation with a regional or national hotel franchise, providing increased visibility, access to branded reservation systems, improved distribution channels, and the potential to increase ADR while maintaining the property’s Route 66 character.
