or geography. By focusing on these themes, HGI has been able to invest ahead of trends.
Favorable Current Cash Returns – HGI targets
investments in assets that provide its investors with stable, favorable current cash returns.

Advantage - HGI believes that its reputation, built over many
years, combined with its extensive network of relationships provides
HGI with proprietary transaction opportunities and a competitive advantage
in many situations.
Conservative Underwriting – HGI pursues a disciplined
investment approach identifying attractive opportunities with significant
upside potential and controllable downside protection. HGI utilizes rigorous due diligence, conservative assumptions and careful assessment of downside scenarios before acquiring a property.
Prudent Use of Leverage - HGI aggressively manages
the capital structure of its investments utilizing prudent leverage, obtaining financing on the best terms available in the market in order to provide transactions with increased downside protection.
Investment Focus - Due to its size and reputation,
HGI is presented with thousands of opportunities per year. However, it focuses only on deals that fit its strict investment parameters.
Exit Strategies - HGI only commits to investments that offer clear, realistic multiple exit strategies primarily through refinancings, sales to private investors, institutions or public REITs. HGI believes that a disciplined approach at the time of investment enables it to better assess exit alternatives as they arise.
