An independent Convenience Store & Fuel Feasibility Study evaluating a 4,623 SF c-store, 14 fueling positions, national-brand QSR in Palm Beach Gardens, Florida.

PALM BEACH GARDENS, Florida — Wert-Berater, Inc., an independent feasibility study consulting firm serving lenders and government agencies since 1998, has completed a Convenience Store & Fuel Feasibility Study in Palm Beach Gardens, Florida.
Wert-Berater served as independent feasibility consultant to the lender and CDC. Party names are withheld consistent with the confidential nature of underwriting and capital-advisory work; figures represent the project as evaluated at the study date.
Demolition and new construction of a 4,623-square-foot convenience store with fourteen fueling positions and a national-brand quick-service restaurant at the same signalized intersection. Year 1 pro forma: $15,720,182 total revenue and $1,732,117 EBITDA, producing an operating DSCR of 4.65x — 304 percent above the SBA minimum.
Full redevelopment: demolition of the existing improvements, fuel canopy with fourteen positions, branded convenience store, in-store QSR, and complete site reconstruction at the corner.
$4,596,198 permanent loan at 6.50% over 25 years ($372,407 annual debt service); $2,075,000 borrower equity — 31.7% of TPC, more than three times the SBA minimum injection.
Monte Carlo simulation across 10,000 iterations — simultaneously varying fuel gallons ±25%, fuel margin $0.35–0.65, store revenue ±25%, QSR revenue −50% to +20%, and operating expenses — produced a minimum DSCR of 2.14x and a 0.0 percent probability of breaching 1.15x: even the worst randomly generated combination never approached the floor. Open items at the determination date were the pending Phase I ESA and final lender/CDC identification.
