CaliberCos Inc. (NASDAQ: CWD) completed the sale of the Holiday Inn Ocotillo, a branded hotel located in the Phoenix–Chandler submarket, for $13 million. The property was held by Caliber Hospitality Trust, Inc., the company’s dedicated hospitality investment vehicle, and the transaction was executed through Caliber’s private Umbrella Partnership C‑Corporation (Up‑C) vehicle.
The sale is part of CaliberCos’s broader portfolio‑optimization strategy, which focuses on middle‑market hospitality, multifamily, and industrial real estate. By divesting the Ocotillo, the company frees up capital that can be recycled into new acquisitions and used to strengthen its balance sheet amid ongoing liquidity challenges. The proceeds will be combined with new equity raised through Caliber’s in‑house capital‑markets platform to fund future growth initiatives.
CaliberCos has faced significant financial headwinds in recent years, reporting net losses of $19.8 million in 2024 and $4.55 million in Q3 2025. The company’s Nasdaq compliance issues were resolved in November 2025, but the sale underscores the need to improve liquidity and reduce debt exposure. While the transaction does not alter the company’s profitability outlook, it provides a tangible source of cash that can support operational and strategic priorities.
In addition to real‑estate activities, CaliberCos is advancing its Digital Asset Treasury program, the first public real‑estate platform to launch a treasury anchored in Chainlink (LINK) tokens. The sale’s proceeds, together with new equity, will help fund the expansion of this program, which aims to generate yield through staking and appreciation of digital assets.
"We acquired the property prior to COVID, navigated through one of the most disruptive periods in the history of the hospitality industry, and exited the investment at a time when we are seeing better uses of capital," said CEO Chris Loeffler. "We now turn our attention back to growth as we enter a market full of new opportunities to create value for CHT."
