Through RSRV, accredited investors can buy equity in the St. Regis Aspen Resort, redeem their shares for rooms at a discount, and have the option to lock in a fixed room rate in perpetuity. RSRV will add additional luxury hotels properties to its marketplace.
The details of the first offering will be disclosed through the Offering Memorandum. They will include a "Membership On Demand" feature with special privileges for investors based on their holding and the ability for investors to trade their shares in a secondary market.
"We are thrilled to bring our platform online and to launch with the iconic St. Regis Aspen Resort, our first hotel property," said Stephane De Baets, RSRV acting CEO. "In these times of ramping inflation, RSRV is a unique solution that offers savvy investors the ability to lock in discounted rates and protect their purchasing power - a key feature of our platform that uniquely benefits luxury travelers that we are confident they will love."
RSRV's marketplace platform, powered by tZERO Securities, is a new innovative way for accredited investors to purchase equity in luxury and lifestyle hotel properties and obtain exclusive benefits. RSRV also enables hotel owners to raise capital by utilizing equity, rather than taking on far more costly mezzanine debt. Additionally, by offering attractive member perks, the program can help increase occupancy, customer engagement and retention, and customer satisfaction.
"We are delighted to support this pilot asset on the RSRV platform, powered by our broker-dealer, as we provide solutions for hotel industry debt service while also creating new investment opportunities that include unique room rate protection and other utility features," said David Goone, CEO of tZERO Group, the parent company of tZERO Securities.
"At Science, our excitement is drawn towards companies that convert customers into fans, and RSRV is elevating this concept by transforming fans into owners," said Michael Jones, Co-founder and Managing Director of Science Inc., "By offering equity shares paired with special membership benefits, fans-turned-investors receive exclusive perks like VIP concert experiences and unique travel opportunities. This approach empowers investors and offers hotel operators a more economical alternative to traditional mezzanine debt."
RSRV is an example of Real World Asset (RWA) tokenization. This growing market includes everything from physical properties and infrastructure to intellectual property and financial contracts.
