There are garages that do this: they know everyone isn’t there all at once so they sell 5% more than they have capacity for.
Fine print says they don’t guarantee a park. You’re monthly pass is just the right to hunt for a park.
I think in some places this is actually banned now (LA maybe?). They gotta track how many cars enter/leave and not let it go over capacity. Malls can pull this shit around holidays. They let people go in even when full, find there’s no parking and leave having to pay to exit and go to another lot. Holiday surcharge and all.
I suspect for residential parking lots around here overselling isn’t the norm. I feel like we’d see regular threads if that were the case.

My garage takes the total number of spaces, subtracts monthly spaces, reserved and non-reserved and then that’s how many daily cars they’ll allow in.
