A serviced apartments building is a professionally managed residential property that offers fully furnished apartments with hotel-like amenities and flexible stay options, typically ranging from a few nights to several months. Guests receive conveniences such as housekeeping, utilities, Wi-Fi, front-desk or concierge support, and access to shared facilities like gyms, lounges, or meeting spaces, while enjoying the privacy and space of a self-contained unit with a kitchen. Serviced apartments are popular with corporate travelers, relocating families, and long-stay guests seeking a comfortable "home-away-from-home" experience.
This dynamic, investor-ready Serviced Apartments development financial model forecasts the full lifecycle of the investment—from construction and lease-up through stabilized operations—by linking unit mix, occupancy ramp, average daily rate (ADR), and length of stay to revenue from accommodation and ancillary services. The model supports long-term forecasting, feasibility analysis, and investment planning, with flexible inputs for development costs, unit types, occupancy rates, lenght of stay, ADR, operating expenses, and financing structure. It provides a robust financial framework to assess project viability and guide strategic decision-making.
The structure of the template follows Financial Modeling Best Practices principles and is fully customizable.
