Testimonials
“We are a Houston-based developer, owner and operator of upscale hotels and resorts in Texas and Louisiana. Zuhair Bheda has represented us on several occasions as we acquire and sell hotels. The most recent was the sale of our Sam Houston Hotel, a Curio Collection by Hilton, located in downtown Houston. We have found him to be creative, honest and professional in his efforts to represent the interests of both buyer and seller. He is very tenacious and his research, along with knowing the strategic plans of his clients results in a win/win for all parties. I would highly recommend him for any hotel real estate transaction."
"Zuhair represented us in the sale of our Aloft Houston Downtown. He procured a highly credible institutional buyer from his extensive client base. We wanted to close on the sale in less than 75 days and we were able to accomplish that with Zuhair’s attention to detail and efficiency throughout the entire Due Diligence and Closing process. We look forward to working with Zuhair for all of our hotel sale transactions."
"We had the pleasure to work with Zuhair for the acquisition of the Quality Suites in Austin, TX. Zuhair was very thorough in his follow up on all items, highly professional and transparent in all communications. Zuhair has a proactive approach in sourcing qualified investment deals, we look forward to continuing working with him in the future."
