The team behind J Street Hospitality has announced the launch of a new affiliate firm, Anagram Ventures. The private and independently owned firm is helmed by president Sajan Hansji. Inspired by the eponymous linguistic concept, Anagram’s goal is to identify and execute creative solutions for debt restructuring, alternative uses for real estate, brand repositioning, and operating cost reductions in order to sustain investment. Entrepreneurial in spirit, Anagram will provide value for stakeholders during this new economic cycle through the acquisition, development, and sale of hospitality-related assets.
“Our principals offer a streamlined approach that delivers expertise in hotel operations, real estate deal structuring, and capital markets—all under one roof,” Hansji says. “The partnership’s objective is to negotiate and acquire hotels, by targeting the ‘all-in’ basis, with a special focus on unique factors that may create immediate value and/or long-term risk mitigation. Through our multifaceted experience, we use a relationship-focused, solution-driven, and radically simple approach—allowing us to sustain until the market is right for an exit.”
