Not included in base projections. If regenerative farming tenants are secured, these annual benefits become available:
Optional upside — not reflected in projections above
• Phased model: Y0 = bridge-funded setup (no units open); SBA closes at Y1, units begin opening
• Occupancy: 59% (198 nights/yr booked; 11 months × ~4 stays/month) at full operation
• Y0 revenue: $0 — bridge phase, no units operating
• Y1 revenue: $201K — SBA activation, 6 glamping + New Barnhouse open, NOI $8K
• Y3 SBA stabilization: $634K revenue, $182K NOI, DSCR 4.2x
• Phase 2 (Y3): 12 glamping + 1 cabin; revenue $634K
• Phase 3 (Y5): 16 glamping + 3 cabins; revenue $1.07M, NOI $372K
• Phase 4 (Y7): 20 glamping + 5 cabins — full build-out; revenue $1.65M, NOI $757K
• Natural builds added Years 2, 4, 6, 8 at no capital cost (workshop-funded)
• Event venue spaces leased/contracted separately — not included in glamping business revenue projections
• Staffing ramps: Business Mgr (Y1) → Customer Mgr (Y3) → Housekeeping + Grounds (Y5) → 2 additional FTEs (Y7)
• All FTE wages set at equitable living wage: $81,000/yr ($6,750/mo)
• Capital structure: $25K bridge draw Y0 (12%); $346.5K SBA draw Y1 (4%); ops-funded draws Y3/Y5/Y6/Y7 totaling $2.17M. Total capital draws: $2.54M. SBA loan facility: $3.86M (includes bridge refinancing + land). Peak debt ~$946K (Y3)
• Debt service: All NOI applied to principal + interest. Interest declines from $3K (Y0) to $27K (Y8). Ending balance reaches $0 at Y8 — debt-free
