A Senior Vice President with HVS, Brian Arevalo is the leader of the HVS Chicago office. Brian has extensive experience consulting in lodging markets throughout the Midwest. After joining HVS in 2012, Brian initially worked with the HVS Houston office, relocated to Cincinnati in 2016, and assumed leadership of the Chicago office in 2022. Brian has worked on appraisal and consulting assignments for hundreds of hotels and resorts throughout the U.S. and Latin America. He has completed assignments for a variety of clients, including financial lending entities, institutions, government agencies, corporate entities, legal and accounting professionals, developers, and private individuals.
Brian has experience with all hotel asset classes, giving him a rounded perspective on the industry. His experience is highlighted below.
"Anne and Brian did their typical extraordinary job with my market study for this project, which we have done multiple times, as this project was deferred due to COVID. Their mastery of the hospitality space, market research and knowledge, and technical capabilities are unparalleled in the industry. HVS is best in class." – Gary Parkes, Parkes Companies
"HVS did a great job working on a feasibility study for us. The final product was very thorough and exceeded our expectations!" – Craig Maynard, CMA, MSA, Eureka College
"The assignment in question involved the completion of appraisals for three separate full-service hotels in three separate locations owned by a two-member ownership group whose members were deeply conflicted. An evaluation of product improvement costs was also required. One of the very few issues that all parties could agree upon was to utilize HVS to perform the appraisals, and all parties were satisfied with the results (which were done quickly)." – William O'Brien, Winegardner & Hammons
