Frequently Asked Questions
Why is key person insurance important for hotels?
Hotel general managers and revenue managers directly impact profitability through occupancy rates, ADR, and guest satisfaction. Their unexpected loss can significantly affect operations and revenue—making key person coverage essential.
How much coverage do hotel owners typically need?
Coverage typically ranges from 5-10x key person compensation, plus debt obligations and estimated costs for management transition—often $2-20 million for mid-size properties.
Can life insurance help with hotel ownership transfers?
Yes. Buy-sell agreements funded by life insurance ensure smooth ownership transitions, providing liquidity for family successions or partner buyouts without forcing property sales.
