USDA Feasibility Study for Self-Storage Facilities in Hawaii

    NAICS 531130

    Self-storage projects in rural Hawaii serve constrained housing markets where residents and small businesses lack space, and where land cost defines the project. An independent USDA feasibility study consultant models unit mix, rate per square foot and lease-up; the independent USDA feasibility study company tests land tenure and ground-lease term.

    Program Fit

    B&I as a real-estate-backed operating business, typically within the enhanced 85 percent FY2026 tier for loans under $5 million.

    What the Study Covers

    Framed to the scope required by 7 CFR Part 5001 Appendix A for OneRD guaranteed loan submissions.

    • Market demand and competitive supply analysis
    • Technical and site feasibility, including environmental considerations
    • Five to ten year financial projections with DSCR, DCF, and sensitivity analysis
    • Management and operational capacity assessment
    • Economic feasibility and rural community impact

    Hawaii Market Evidence

    Hawaii storage demand reflects high housing costs and military and visitor churn; Maui's Bill 9 conversions may add long-term rental supply that changes household storage demand in West and South Maui. USDA's Honolulu determination treats only the Urban Honolulu and East Honolulu census-designated places as urban, so most of Oahu and all neighbor-island territory is B&I-eligible; every Hawaii study includes a dated, address-level USDA map determination.
