Hotel Auction Offers Flexibility in Border Market

NORTHBROOK, Ill., Oct. 6, 2026 /CourierPR/ -- Hilco Real Estate, LLC, a practice of Hilco Global, a diversified financial services company that delivers expert professional services and capital solutions to help clients maximize value and drive performance across the business lifecycle, announces October 19 as the online auction for Expressway Suites, an 80-key hotel development opportunity. Located at 715 Frontage Road, Brownsville, TX, this offering is minutes from the US-Mexico border and offers direct frontage along Interstate 69E and US-77/83.

Originally constructed in 1974, the two-story, masonry-constructed building totals 38,646± SF on a 2.18± AC site, with renovations started in 2024. The property offers a variety of guest-focused amenities, including a restaurant, outdoor pool, 38 storage units and 83 surface parking spaces. With no existing franchise agreement in place, the asset provides a level of branding flexibility that is uncommon in a market where much of the limited-service inventory is already committed to a flag.

The hotel is not presently operating, allowing a buyer to finish the repositioning and open on their own timeline. Independently operated, the site offers a buyer the flexibility to select and align with a franchise that best fits its operating platform. The hotel occupies direct frontage on the region's principal north-south trade corridor, where traffic counts along North Expressway exceed 67,000 vehicles per day within a quarter mile of the site, according to TxDOT annual average daily traffic data.

The Port of Brownsville, which contributed $11.9 billion to Texas gross domestic product in 2024, supporting more than 101,000 jobs statewide according to the Texas Comptroller's Office, remains the only deepwater seaport located directly on the US-Mexico border. SpaceX operations are projected to generate $13 billion in economic impact in Cameron County, adding a durable source of contractor, supplier, and visitor travel. The Brownsville submarket posted 63.3% occupancy and an average daily rate of $112.98 over the trailing 12 months, with no new rooms delivered during that period.

The sale of Expressway Suites is in cooperation with Hilco Real Estate, LLC, TX Broker Lic. #9017017-BB and is being conducted by online auction from October 19 at 12 p.m. (PT) to October 21, 12 p.m. (PT). Bids must be submitted using the documents available for review and download on the Hilco Global Real Estate Sales website. On-site inspections will be held by appointment only.
