Portage MI, September, 2005 - FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

This year, R.A. Yarling & Company is celebrating its tenth year in business, and the firm has recently completed its 400th project.

This premier, single-source, project management and owner’s representative company specializes in hotel renovations and new hotel construction. It is owned and operated by Rick Yarling, a seasoned veteran of the hospitality industry who also serves as company president.

"It is absolutely thrilling to reach each of these milestones," says Yarling. "If someone had told me ten years ago that we would be completing projects with such efficiency, I’m not sure I would have believed them," says Yarling.

The firm is currently representing the interests of Apple REIT Companies in the construction of 13 new hotels, including full service and select service brands for Marriott International Inc. and the Hilton Hotels Group in Florida, Texas, New Jersey, Connecticut and Pennsylvania. The projects are valued at over $92 million.

"As an owner’s representative and project management consultant, we provide single-source accountability to property owners throughout the construction process. This provides assurance that when the deal is closed, they are not overpaying and assuming excessive business risk or future liability because of poor construction," Yarling explains.

Founded in 1996, R.A. Yarling & Company provides services to an elite clientele that reads like a Who’s Who of the hospitality industry: Wyndham International, Inc., Trans Inns Management, Marriott International, Inc., Host Marriott Inc., Renaissance Hotels, Hilton Hotels Corporation, and InterContinental Hotels Group.
