Richard Smith, president and CEO of FelCor Lodging Trust, Inc. (NYSE: FCH), joined REIT.com for a CEO Spotlight video interview at REITWorld 2015: NAREIT’s Annual Convention for All Things REIT at the Wynn Las Vegas.
In September, FelCor sold the final hotel in its disposition program. Since that time, the company has said it would make opportunistic asset sales. Smith explained the strategy.
“It’s really to create capacity as we move through the cycle and open up the use of proceeds for things that will be higher yielding,” he said.
