"Desiree Flanary was a joy to work with – very knowledgeable and highly professional." – Kenneth Krater, Krater Consulting Group
"HVS provides the required feasibility report in great detail which helps a developer to gain confidence in the project, and this report helps throughout the project in obtaining financing and a franchise affiliation." – Mr. Patel, Raka Hotel Management
"HVS was very professional and thorough in their market study for our proposed hotel in Southern Oregon. The attention to detail and timely manner in answering questions were helpful and appreciated. HVS has been a tremendous asset in our development process, and we highly recommend them to anyone needing a market study and reliable data." – Mr. Bianchina, Clearwater Property Group, LLC
