WICHITA, KS-Value Place, a locally based hybrid hospitality-residential chain that opened its first outpost here in fall 2003, has ambitious expansion plans for 2007. The company, which currently has about 30 Value Place extended-stay hotels in 23 states, plans to have 150 new properties under construction next year, says Charles Bruce, Value Place’s senior vice president of brand strategy.

The portfolio expansion will be fueled in part by $25-million equity revolver financing, which was recently secured on behalf of Value Place by New York City-based AFC Realty Capital.
