Horwath HTL has appointed Bryan Younge as managing partner/practice leader, valuation advisory, Americas. In his new role, he oversees the firm’s advisory services across the Americas and works alongside John Fareed, Horwath HTL global chairman.
With more than 25 years of experience in the hospitality industry, Younge’s expertise spans valuation, investment advisory and strategic financial analysis, and he has played a pivotal role in developing three high-performing specialty practice groups at leading global commercial real estate firms. Throughout his career, he has led teams at firms such as Newmark, Colliers, Cushman & Wakefield, Deloitte, Andersen, PwC, Sage Hospitality Resources and HVS. Additionally, he has provided litigation support and testimony, providing critical analytics and trial testimony in multibillion-dollar merger and acquisition assignments.
“We are excited to welcome Bryan to Horwath HTL as managing partner and practice leader,” said Fareed. “His extensive experience and proven track record in the industry make him the ideal fit for our team. Bringing Bryan on as a partner is a key step in our broader succession plan, ensuring we continue to deliver exceptional service to our clients while positioning ourselves for continued growth.”
In addition to Younge’s appointment, Horwath HTL will be expanding its team with the addition of several new professionals across a variety of positions within the Americas region.
Under Younge’s leadership, the firm has launched the highly anticipated Horwath HTL MarketCompass Lodging Reports, covering 110 markets across the U.S. These reports offer insights into occupancy, ADR and RevPAR trends across all six class scales, detailed economic contexts and a proprietary Market Performance Ranking (MPR) for each market. The MPR is based on dozens of advanced factors, including current, past and expected performance, collected daily to accurately assess each market’s characteristics and its standing relative to all other U.S. markets.
“At Horwath HTL, we are committed to being the leading global advisor in the hospitality industry,” said Younge. “As we expand in 2025, we will strategically select a small, highly skilled group of professionals nationwide to ensure our clients receive unparalleled service. Our mission is to build the industry’s most specialized, experienced and client-focused team, delivering cutting-edge valuation and true advisory solutions. While these disciplines are widely practiced, we aim to redefine them and set a new standard for excellence in hospitality, tourism, and leisure consultancy.”
He added, “I am thrilled to join Horwath HTL and contribute my valuation expertise to such a distinguished firm. Working alongside John Fareed, a true leader in our field, is an honor and an invaluable opportunity. I look forward to helping drive the firm’s success and learning from one of the industry’s most respected figures.”
