Tulip Real Estate acquires Hilton property in Syon Park, UK
Property consultancy Tulip Real Estate has completed the acquisition of the five-star Hilton property in Syon Park, London, UK, for around £30m ($40.68m), strengthening its move into luxury hospitality. The 137-key luxury spa property is situated within the 200-acre Syon Park Estate close to Brentford. Launched as a Waldorf Astoria for the 2012 London Olympics, the Syon Park property was rebranded as a deluxe Hilton in 2019. The acquisition from American investment fund Lone Star includes the hotel as part of a four-property portfolio. Hudson managed the asset during the transitional phase, with Tulip Real Estate now assuming the role of new owner. This transaction showcases Tulip Real Estate's growing interest in premium investments and its focus on the UK's heritage properties. Led by founder and managing director Sidd Mahajan, the company owns several historic hotels such as the nearly 300-year-old Warbrook House Heritage Hotel and the almost 400-year-old Whately Hall Hotel. Tulip has a track record of refurbishing formerly derelict properties, merging historic preservation with contemporary luxury. The Hilton property acquisition is the company's first major hotel partnership in the UK, conducted through a joint venture with an operator managing six luxury hotels within the country. Countrywide Hotels will oversee the operational management of the property.

Salary cap implications of Packers releasing CB Jaire Alexander
Salary cap implications of Packers releasing CB Jaire Alexander The Green Bay Packers didn't need to create salary cap room ahead of the 2025 season, but the team will gain a significant amount of space when cornerback Jaire Alexander is officially released on Monday. Ian Rapoport of NFL Network was the first to report the Packers releasing Alexander to start the week. Alexander, who signed a $84 million deal with the Packers in 2022, will be released with two years left on his deal. His salary cap number was set to be $24.6 million in 2025, and efforts to reduce the number or rework the contract and keep Alexander in Green Bay ended up unsuccessful. The Packers are releasing Alexander after June 1, so the salary cap savings will be substantial this year. The official savings in 2025 is $17,117,647, per Over the Cap. The Packers will take on $7,518,708 of dead money on the 2025 salary cap, but the post-June 1 release means an additional $9.5 million of dead money will go on the 2026 salary cap. The mechanism allows teams to split significant dead money costs across two seasons. According to Over the Cap, the Packers will have around $46 million in total cap space when Alexander's release is finalized. Only two teams -- the San Francisco 49ers and New England Patriots -- will have more, giving Brian Gutekunst considerable flexibility this year. The Packers are also removing Alexander's $27,018,708 cap number from the 2026 cap, a significant amount considering how much money the team already has committed to next year's cap. The team will take on an additional $2,005,766 of dead money on the cap due to a void year added to Alexander's deal. Alexander had a non-guaranteed base salary of $16,150,000 in 2025. Now a free agent, Alexander can sign with any team.

Senate passes stripped-back version of ‘no-cause' eviction bill, but House likely to oppose it
Senators scaled back the bill to lessen the effect on tenants — raising the likelihood of a clash with the House. (Getty Images) The New Hampshire Senate passed a bill Thursday intended to make it easier for landlords to terminate tenancies. But before passing it, senators scaled back the bill to lessen the effect on tenants — raising the likelihood of a clash with the House. In current law, New Hampshire landlords must cite a specific reason to initiate evictions, including nonpayment of rent, failure to follow the lease, behavior affecting the health or safety of others, or a business reason by the landlord, such as a renovation. As originally passed by the House, House Bill 60 would have allowed for 'no-fault' or 'no-cause' termination of tenancies for leases six months or longer. In those cases, landlords could ask a tenant to leave at the end of the lease period with no reason given. Republicans argue allowing no-cause evictions would let landlords treat leases as fixed-length contracts with tenants, and relieve them of the burden of finding a reason if they no longer wished to rent to someone. But Democrats and legal aid organizations argue it would increase the pace of evictions and could make it easier for landlords to discriminate. On Thursday, the Senate dramatically altered the bill, keeping the 'no-fault' evictions but adding a trigger provision that prevents application of the law unless the state has had a 4% or higher rental vacancy rate for four quarters in one calendar year, as determined by the Federal Reserve. Currently, the Federal Reserve estimates New Hampshire has exactly a 4% vacancy rate, citing U.S. Census data. The Senate's version would also allow landlords to use no-cause evictions only with leases of 12 months or more. And it would exempt tenants who are subject to no-cause evictions from having those evictions added to their record for the purpose of rental applications and tenant screening reports, easing concerns from housing advocates about the effects of the original bill. Those changes earned the support of Senate Democrats; the amended bill was voted through unanimously Thursday. But before the bill can go to Gov. Kelly Ayotte's desk, it must receive final sign-off from the House, and some House Republicans have made it clear they are not happy with the Senate's changes. Rep. Joe Alexander, a Goffstown Republican and the chairman of the Housing Committee, said he will be requesting a Committee of Conference with the Senate to attempt to find a compromise when the House meets on Thursday. The Senate's version of the bill does not fit with the House's position, Alexander said in an interview. And he noted that the full House already voted down two attempted Democratic amendments to add trigger provisions. 'The House position is the lease is a contract,' Alexander said. 'And (in) every other place in contract law, when a contract ends, both parties go their separate ways unless there's conversation about renewing it. So we're just trying to bring it in line with all other contract law in the state.' Elliott Berry, a former attorney for New Hampshire Legal Assistance who has been following the bill, said even with the Senate changes, he and other housing advocates believe HB 60 could harm tenants. 'It's going to make a lot of landlords take the easy way out,' he said. 'And so tenants who for whatever reason feel any kind of antagonism towards them in general, well-based or not, they're going to be in jeopardy.'
