What Stomp Capital does

Stomp Capital operates a next-generation hospitality private equity fund (STOMP CAPITAL NEXT GEN HOSPITALITY FUND LLC, domiciled in Wyoming) that acquires and develops boutique hotel and short-term rental assets under the unified Edgecamp brand. The firm combines elements of premium hotels — proactive service, centralized concierge operations, and quality standards — with the flexibility and a-la-carte pricing of short-term rentals, targeting what it describes as twice the profitability and guest satisfaction of traditional luxury hotel models in high barrier-to-entry markets. The portfolio comprises approximately 142 keys across seven properties: Edgecamp Sporting Club and Edgecamp Pamlico Station (Hatteras Island, NC), Edgecamp Southampton (NY), Edgecamp Nosara (Costa Rica), Edgecamp Palm Beach (FL), Edgecamp Palm Springs (CA), and Edgecamp Crested Butte (CO). Notable economics include a $204K-per-key acquisition basis at Old Town Inn (vs. $300K/key in Jackson Hole and $800K/key in Aspen) and one-third market share of all hotel rooms in Crested Butte.

The underlying technology stack is a centralized, remote-first concierge platform that coordinates guest itineraries across multiple properties with light on-premise touchpoints, supported by real-time performance reporting and harmonized back-end systems managed by a Director of Systems & Technology. Distribution is investor-direct: the fund raises capital from accredited investors (including international LPs and self-directed IRAs) at a $100,000 minimum, using deal-specific webinars, the Short Term Rental University content ecosystem (75K+ YouTube, 50.3K+ Facebook, 26K+ Twitter followers), and a JuniperSquare investor portal. The fund charges a 2% management fee and a 65/35 LP-to-GP carried interest split after a 7% preferred return, targeting pro forma 5X Net MOIC and 18% Net IRR over a 10-year horizon.

The leadership team is led by Founder & CIO Richard Fertig (ex-Co-Head of Investments at Ramius Capital, ex-Blackstone), with Pamela Lenci as COO (ex-President/GM of Caldera House), Erica Fertig as Chief Culture Officer, and a growth/acquisitions function staffed by ex-Deloitte and ex-Revantage (Blackstone) professionals. The firm operates a lean team of 1–10 employees distributed across Jackson Hole, WY and Outer Banks, NC.

Direct peers

• AvantStay: Institutional short-term rental and boutique hospitality operator acquiring and professionally managing premium vacation rental portfolios. Directly comparable to Stomp's strategy of consolidating fragmented STR assets under institutional quality standards and a unified brand.
• Kasa: Tech-enabled hybrid hospitality operator combining hotel-quality service with professionally managed short-term rental inventory across multiple markets. Closely comparable in product offering (boutique STR with proactive hospitality) and target customer (corporate and leisure travelers seeking upscale alternatives to traditional hotels).
• Sonder: Hospitality/STR hybrid operating apartment-style and boutique accommodations with centralized technology and service platforms. Comparable to Stomp in its next-gen hospitality positioning at the convergence of short-term rentals and hotels, though at substantially larger scale.
• Vacasa: Largest North American vacation rental management platform with a portfolio spanning hundreds of thousands of units in leisure destinations including beach and ski markets. Comparable in target geography (tourism-driven markets) and product category, though Stomp is owner-operator while Vacasa is primarily a third-party manager.

Broad incumbents

• Pebblebrook Hotel Trust: Publicly traded REIT specializing in urban and resort boutique/lifestyle hotels across major U.S. markets. Operates at substantially larger scale but addresses the same underlying asset class (boutique lifestyle hotels) with comparable focus on premium, experience-driven guest segments.
• Hersha Hospitality Trust: Lodging REIT focused on luxury soft-branded and lifestyle hotels in urban and resort markets. Acquired by Blackstone in 2023, validating institutional appetite for boutique hospitality assets in Stomp's category, while operating at institutional scale far above Stomp's current footprint.
• Sunstone Hotel Investors: Public lodging REIT focused on long-term hotel real estate, including upper-upscale and lifestyle properties in gateway markets. Comparable in pursuing premium lifestyle hospitality but with a public-market capital structure and substantially larger portfolio.
• Highgate Hotels: Major hospitality operator and investor managing a broad portfolio of branded and independent hotels, with development capabilities across luxury and lifestyle segments. Comparable in combining hotel investment and operating expertise, though at much greater scale and across more traditional urban/resort markets.
• Wyndham Hotels & Resorts: Largest hotel franchisor in the world, with a midscale-and-above portfolio including upscale boutique-style brands. While predominantly a franchise model rather than an owner-operator, it is highly comparable in addressing the same traveler segments and broadly overlaps with the boutique/lifestyle category Stomp targets.

Emerging players

• Plum Guide: Curated luxury vacation rental platform with a quality-vetted inventory of high-end homes in major leisure destinations. Comparable to Stomp's Edgecamp brand in targeting affluent travelers seeking vetted, design-forward accommodations above the typical Airbnb tier, though operating as a third-party marketplace rather than owner-operator.
