The Problem
Storage credit looks simple until the cycle turns. The data to underwrite the turn is missing in most deal rooms:
- Sponsor pro forma stabilized rates are aspirational, not market-tested
- Saturation risk is hard to quantify without facility-density data and supply pipeline signals
- You can't see how a facility actually priced through the last cycle
- When a deal needs to re-trade, your team rebuilds comps from scratch
What You Can Do
Stress-Test Sponsor Stabilized Rates
Compare the sponsor's stabilized rate assumption against the actual metro median trajectory. Quantify how aggressive the assumption is, in dollars and percentile terms, and price the credit accordingly.
Facility-Level Rate History
Pull the target facility's multi-year nightly rate history. Watch how it priced through the last rate cycle. Surface facilities that cut rates sharply during demand softness — a real underwriting signal.
Market Saturation Read
Per-metro and per-submarket facility density and supply pressure. Combine with permit-pipeline signals to flag oversupply risk before it shows in NOI.
Re-Trade Defense Pack
When a deal slips and you need to re-cut, the API lets you regenerate comps and rate-trend backups in minutes. Unlimited export keeps your IC packets self-serve.
Sample Insight
17 facilities within 3 miles · +4 in permit pipeline
Submarket facility count is in the 91st percentile across all 12 Sunbelt metros. Web-rate trend is -1.8% MoM on 10x10 standard. Permit filings indicate four new facilities under construction.
Underwriting takeaway: size LTV against a stabilized rate at the 25th percentile of the submarket, not the median. Reset reserve assumptions to match supply-pipeline timing.
Illustrative only — live numbers populate once nightly crawls and permit ingestion accumulate baseline weeks.
