Groups · 2 to 10 properties
The head office your group does not have.
Each property has a manager and a spreadsheet, so you hold six versions of the truth and no single picture. The expensive blind spots sit in the gaps between properties rather than inside any one of them. We read the group as one, owner-side.
Two products, one sequence
First the review shows where the group is blind. Then the Tower keeps watching.
Portfolio Control Gap Review
A one-off review across the group: where the owner is blind across properties, channels, money flow and operating rhythm, delivered as a ranked control-gap register with a fix order. Public data and owner-supplied documents, no system access. Credited in full against a Control Tower setup started within 30 days of the readout.
Scope a Portfolio ReviewGroup Control Tower
The standing owner-side control layer: every property's systems reporting to one consolidated read, with a monthly owner briefing and a quarterly view across the portfolio. We escalate exceptions as they arise, take read-only private data only, and bind terms before any access. We scope the setup per group before the rhythm begins.

What your group size costs.
| Properties in the group | Portfolio Control Gap Review, one-off | Group Control Tower, monthly |
|---|---|---|
| 2 | $3,500 | $3,000/mo |
| 4 | $4,500 | $4,500/mo |
| 6 | $5,500 | $6,000/mo |
| 8 | $6,500 | $7,500/mo |
The Tower adds a one-time setup, which we scope per group before anything recurs, and we credit the review fee in full against it when the Tower starts within 30 days of the readout. We confirm every fee in writing before work begins.
Against your real alternatives
The comparison you are running.
An owner weighing the Tower is usually weighing it against a portfolio asset manager, a full-time analyst, or the operator offering to consolidate reporting themselves. Here is the honest version of that table.
| Dimension | Group Control Tower | Portfolio asset manager | Full-time analyst | Operator-run reporting |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Indicative cost | $3,000–$8,250/mo | Typically from $2,500/mo, and most will not take a portfolio below institutional size | From ~$1,400/mo | Often folded into the management fee |
| What it sees | Every property's systems wired to one read: bookings, channels, rates, reviews, reconciliation, daily | Monthly packs prepared from what each operator sends | Whatever one person can open, chase and reconcile by hand | The operator's own numbers, prepared by the party being measured |
| Independence | Owner-side by written rule: no operating mandate, ever | Independent, at a size and fee tier built for institutions | Independent, but junior and alone against your managers | None. It marks its own homework |
| What it will not do | Operate the properties, replace your managers, or attend the site. It reads, flags and drafts; you decide | Daily reconciliation, or properties your size | Build the wiring. An analyst reads systems; they cannot connect eleven of them | Surface the findings that cost the operator money |
The costs shown are indicative market figures from our 2026 competitive research, not quotes. If a cheaper option fits your group, we will say so in the scoping call.
What you receive
One consolidated picture, then one briefing that reads it daily.
The sample Portfolio Review shows the deliverable: the group-level control-gap register, the consolidated monthly picture, and the first 90 days. The control layer page shows the 07:00 morning briefing the Tower sends once the group is wired. Both are drawn from the system that runs our boutique hotel group in Lombok today.
Questions
What a group owner asks first.
My property managers will resist sharing data. What then?
The review needs nothing from them: it runs on public data and documents you already hold. The Tower needs read-only access, granted property by property, and access is the owner's to grant, not the manager's to withhold. Where a manager resists, that resistance is itself a finding, and the briefing records what cannot be seen rather than pretending.
I own in Lombok. Does your no-conflict rule block us working together?
Maybe, and we will tell you straight away. We decline any client inside our own group's competitive set; the rule is written into every engagement. Tell us where you own and we will answer plainly before any fee is discussed.
How does the Tower get set up across six different systems?
Property by property. We scope the setup per group before the recurring rhythm begins: which systems each property runs, what we can wire, and what arrives by export instead. Cloudbeds, Mews, GuestPro and similar stacks are familiar ground, and where a system cannot be wired the briefing says so.
