Who we are
Wert-Berater, Inc. has prepared independent feasibility studies for lenders, certified development companies, and federal agencies since 1998 — more than four thousand engagements representing $40.2 billion in evaluated project value across all fifty states and international assignments. Our fiduciary duty runs to the lender and the agency, never to the sponsor’s optimism: fees are fixed, quoted up front, never contingent on findings, and a determination is never changed under pressure.
What we do
Truck-parking feasibility sits on a documented national shortage, but the study tests the specific site: corridor truck volumes and overnight demand patterns, the paid-parking conversion rate against free alternatives, reserved and fleet-contract revenue, trailer-drop and yard-storage demand from regional logistics operators, and the security and amenity investment the rate premium requires.
How we do it
The analysis uses FHWA and state truck-parking studies, corridor AADT and overnight-demand data, rate surveys of paid parking within the market, and fleet-contract review. The model carries occupancy ramp and rate sensitivity against the program coverage standard.
How we can help you
Roadside and transportation-service projects arrive under SBA 504 and 7(a) for owner-operators — with SOP 50 10 8 special-purpose property treatment addressed where it applies — USDA B&I at qualifying rural locations, and conventional structures for multi-site operators. Truck-parking analysis draws on the firm's travel-center practice and its boat and RV storage record, including a 437-space dry-stack storage engagement at $23,750,000 in Sarasota, Florida.
How to engage us
Standard delivery is 10 to 15 business days from complete project data. Rush delivery for deals already in underwriting is accepted case by case for an additional fixed fee, quoted up front and committed in writing. Engagements are typically initiated by the borrower, with lender or CDC confirmation obtained before work begins — institutions differ, so confirm the procedure with your lending contact.
