Question 1

How much does a parking feasibility study cost?

Accepted Answer

Standard surface-lot studies $12,500. Expanded engagements (up to 20 acres or structured parking) $24,500. Institutional / portfolio engagements $45,000. Fees credit 50% toward future Build or Manage work with Wins Parking — a feasibility client who proceeds to a Wins-built lot effectively receives the study at half price.

Question 2

How long does a parking feasibility study take?

Accepted Answer

Standard engagements deliver in four weeks. Expanded engagements run six weeks. Institutional engagements run eight weeks. Expedited 10-business-day delivery is available for straightforward sites at a 40% premium.

Question 3

What does a parking feasibility study include?

Accepted Answer

Every study includes site analysis, primary 7-day traffic counts, demand-generator inventory within a one-mile radius, competitive landscape audit, preliminary site plan with optimized space counts and ADA placement, five-year financial pro forma in base/upside/downside cases, debt sensitivity, cap-rate-driven exit valuation, IRR and cash-on-cash return, zoning and permit pathway, and a clear go/no-go/conditional-go recommendation.

Question 4

How accurate are your revenue projections?

Accepted Answer

Base-case projections across 38 post-study Wins Parking managed lots have landed within ±7% of Year 1 actual revenue. Downside cases have cleared the floor in every recession-scenario cycle modeled. Accuracy comes from calibrating every assumption against actual operating data from the parking assets we manage across the Rocky Mountain West.

Question 5

Will the study satisfy lender or investor due-diligence requirements?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Reports have been accepted as primary feasibility evidence by institutional lenders including community and regional banks, SBA lenders, and private credit funds. Every assumption carries a data-source citation.

Question 6

Do you produce studies for sites outside Colorado?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Studies are produced nationally with senior team members on-site for the inspection phase regardless of geography. Traffic-counting operations are subcontracted to vetted local partners outside our operating footprint, with all data reviewed by our senior team.

Question 7

What happens if our project doesn't pencil?

Accepted Answer

You receive a clear no-go recommendation with the three most important reasons, an explanation of what would need to change for the project to work, and — where applicable — an alternative-use recommendation. A defensible no-go decision saves significantly more capital than the $12,500 fee.
