                ATLANTA, Ga., July 29, 2013—Peachtree Hotel Group, one of the nation’s fastest growing hotel acquisition, management, development and ownership groups, today announced that it invested more than $50 million in seven hotels during the 2013 second quarter and is on track to exceed its 2013 acquisition and investment goals before the end of the third quarter.

            “Our first quarter activity included the acquisition of six assets, while the second quarter was dominated by note purchases and direct loan originations” said Greg Friedman, Peachtree CEO. 

“We set a 2013 goal of growing our total portfolio by 15 assets, and at the mid-point of the year, we have outpaced our own aggressive plan. 

“Our ability to invest in all levels of the capital stack; equity, senior debt, mezzanine, etc. enables us to fully participate in this volatile market. We continue to have a healthy appetite for all areas of engagement and have both the financial capacity and the professional capabilities to continue executing at this pace.”
