    Hotels and motels are almost always available for purchase. Buyers want the minimum price possible; sellers the maximum price. The hotel buyer usually uses leveraged money, and the sophisticated lender wants to be sure that the money being loaned will be repaid. Both buyer and seller are almost certain to be biased. To help eliminate bias and arrive at a value that the lender will accept, a market and feasibility study can be called for whenever a hotel or motel is bought. The lender obtains an assurance that the property can generate enough income to service the debt. The buyer is shown that indeed there are sizeable number of potential guests and certainly enough of them to create a profit.…

In 1956, the Board of Travel and Tourist Industry was created by Philippine Congress. As stipulated in the Integrated Reorganization Plan in 1972 sanctioned as a law under Presidential Decree No. 1, as amended, the Department of Trade and Tourism was established, reorganizing the then Department of Commerce and Industry. A Philippine Tourism Commission was created under the unified Trade and Tourism Department to oversee the growth of the tourism industry as a source of economic benefit for the country. Then in 1973, President Ferdinand Marcos created a new cabinet-level Department of Tourism (DOT) by splitting the Department of Trade and Tourism into two separate departments. Included in the new Department of Tourism, the agency Philippine Tourism Authority (PTA) and the Philippine Convention Bureau (PCB) were created. The Department of Tourism was then renamed Ministry of Tourism as result of the shift in the form of government as enshrined in the amendments to the 1973 Constitution.…
