Resort ConsultantLeisure Business Advisors LLC (LBA) is a consulting firm that conducts the feasibility study, the first step in in the development process. Resort consultants typically prepare this study for the developer, and it is generally required by financing institutions. The study forecasts targeted usage by applying market penetration rates to market segments. These rates are influenced by market size, demographics, competition, and the experience of comparable facilities elsewhere. The feasibility study also projects potential financial performance and recommends the maximum development costs that would allow an acceptable return-on-investment to investors. These are key issues for those that may finance the project. The study also provides initial physical planning parameters to assist the resort designer during the design stage of development. It is critical that the designs are in line with market needs and expected cash flow. These physical planning guidelines need to be in place before construction and building can start. Designers, builders, and managers can all benefit from the guidance provided in the consultant's study. As part of the feasibility study, LBA can work closely with you in preparing the initial image package that would assist designers in the design stage of development that follows the feasibility stage. We could provide a walk-through description and color artist conceptual images of your new resort seen through the eyes of a typical visitor. These would preliminarily suggest its general "look and feel" in financing and marketing presentations. John
