A change-of-ownership Property Improvement Plan (PIP) is estimated to cost approximately $50,000+/-, though this figure is only a preliminary estimate. *The actual PIP requirements must be verified directly with Choice Hotels, as they are determined solely at the franchisor’s discretion and may vary in both scope and cost. This includes, without limitation, any franchisor requirements related to a change of ownership. The Recipient is solely responsible for independently verifying all such matters.
Seller Note: During Q2 2024 through Q2 2025, operations were temporarily reduced to approximately 50% capacity as the ownership completed significant capital improvements, including the renovation and replacement of all stairwells.
MARKET OVERVIEW:
The Econo Lodge Inn & Suites I-95 Hardeeville is located in the Hardeeville–Savannah regional market, a strategic gateway area serving coastal South Carolina and southeast Georgia. Hardeeville sits in Jasper County, directly along the I-95 corridor between Jacksonville and Charleston, providing critical north–south interstate connectivity for leisure and commercial travel. The property benefits from proximity to Savannah, one of the Southeast’s most visited historic and tourism-driven destinations, as well as convenient access to Hilton Head Island, a premier coastal resort market known for golf, beaches, and luxury leisure demand. The surrounding area is supported by a diverse mix of demand generators including the Savannah/Hilton Head International Airport, the Port of Savannah—one of the fastest-growing container ports in the U.S.—regional distribution and logistics hubs, and expanding residential and industrial development throughout Jasper and Chatham Counties. This combination of interstate exposure, coastal tourism spillover, and strong logistics-driven employment underpins consistent transient lodging demand in the Hardeeville/Savannah market.
