    SBA RV Parks and Campgrounds Feasibility Study in Maryland

    Maryland RV park and campground projects run along the Eastern Shore and Assateague coastal corridors within reach of the Baltimore-Washington population base. Lender packages require feasibility studies that model occupancy by site type, seasonal pricing, and amenity revenue against a compressed summer season and a defined trade area, with elevated equity expected under the SOP.

    FEASIBILITY TRIGGER

    RV parks are on the SOP 50 10 8 special-purpose list, so a third-party study is normally required and equity is elevated.

    What this means for your loan application

    An adverse-resolution rate of 3.2%, close to the national RV park benchmark of 3.2%, puts Maryland deals in this class on ordinary SBA credit footing. Across 1 loans averaging $2.3 million, the underwriting question is deal-specific: a rigorous third-party feasibility study is where documented demand and stressed coverage decide the credit outcome.

    Work with SBA feasibility study consultants

    Every Maryland rv parks and campgrounds project we underwrite follows the same lender ready process: independent market analysis, site and technical review, and financial projections tested against SBA SOP 50 10 8 standards. Our SBA feasibility study consultants guide explains scope, timing, deliverables, and what lenders and CDCs expect in the report.

    Program fit

    Maryland projects often pencil under SBA 504 because the 50/40/10 structure delivers up to 90 percent financing on owner-occupied real estate at a fixed debenture rate, and SBA 7(a) covers acquisitions, working capital, and equipment. From July 4, 2026 eligible borrowers can combine 7(a) and 504 for up to $10 million in total program credit.
