Gaps for the next research pass

The scoring weights, thresholds and override logic are editorial design choices, not empirically validated predictors. Pilot testing should assess completion rates, consistency between reviewers and whether the quiz identifies decision-relevant omissions.
No property-level accounts, contracts, financing terms, insurance quotations, technical surveys or licensed achieved-performance data were supplied or validated. The document cannot assess a particular investment.
Federal official guidance provides starting points, but state and local zoning, licensing, employment, tax, accessibility and other requirements need jurisdiction-specific research.
The core 15-question format accommodates conversions, all-equity buyers and owner-operators, but dedicated versions could improve precision for these materially different decisions.
The contract example is a single publicly filed form, not evidence of typical boutique hotel management terms. Further research should compare authorized property-specific agreements without inferring market norms from isolated filings.
The technical-diligence paper is historical and is used only for enduring scope principles. Current property-specific engineering standards, construction prices and capital budgets require specialist verification.
The proposed diagnostic work products are not verified live tools. Publishing should not add booking links, turnaround promises or confidentiality assurances until the actual delivery arrangements are established.
Buy-side search terms were incorporated for relevance, but search volumes, keyword difficulty and conversion demand were not measured.
The historical First Hospitality asset-management advertisement returned 404 in this refresh; retain it as a dated workflow observation, not a verified live vacancy.
