SBA 7(a) RV Park Feasibility Study in Missouri

What SBA's own loan files show about SBA 7(a) lending to rv park and campground projects in Missouri, and what a feasibility study for an SBA 7(a) loan there has to test.

RV park and campground borrowers under SBA 7(a) in Missouri

Missouri borrowers received 25 SBA 7(a) approvals for RV park and campground during FY2017 to FY2026, a gross $26.7 million. State rank for RV park and campground loan volume is 8, and within Missouri the class stands 21 of 39. The typical Missouri RV park and campground ticket, $622,500, sits below the national median for RV park and campground under SBA 7(a) (0.76x), and half of approvals land between $407,000 and $1.0 million. Franchise-flagged RV park and campground loans make up 16.0% of the Missouri cell.

The FY2017 to FY2026 RV park and campground run

For Missouri RV park and campground, year by year, FY2021 is busiest, with 5 loans and $3.3 million; three years, FY2017, FY2024 and FY2026, recorded none. Missouri saw no RV park and campground approvals in those years.

Missouri cancellations and charge-offs

For Missouri RV park and campground approvals the cancellation rate is withheld: Missouri has too few RV park and campground approvals; SBA 7(a) publishes no stable RV park and campground rate, and RV park and campground readers should assume none. The Missouri RV park and campground loss record is likewise withheld: the Missouri cohort is too small, with scant RV park and campground lending in Missouri, and a missing number is no clean RV park and campground record for FY2017 to FY2021.

Missouri RV parks: tests before approval

The study should show who the guests are, whether short-stay travelers or long-stay residents, with occupancy by month, rates by site type, nearby rival parks, and how weather closures are handled. Utility and site work go against loans around $622,500, with coverage tested at a poor season, and the appraiser will want income across a full year. The plan should also separate the income from nightly stays from the income from monthly stays, state how many sites are for rent and how many are for sale or reserved, and show what the owner pays for staff, utilities and maintenance in a typical month. A reader should be able to follow the money from the gate to the debt payment.

Cancellation and charge-off

Cancelled after approval, FY2017 to FY2024 approvals (a floor) not reported: fewer than 30 loans in the cohort
Charged off to date, FY2017 to FY2021 disbursed loans (a floor) not reported: fewer than 30 loans in the cohort

Both rates are floors. SBA withholds the status of open loans, so a loan counts as charged off only once SBA reports it; a rate needs at least 30 loans in its cohort and is otherwise not reported.
