Item 19 data is the franchisor's own disclosure — request the full FDD for percentile detail, year-over-year trend, and per-segment cuts. Always validate with 10-15 calls to existing franchisees listed in Item 20.
The investment range disclosed in Item 7 of the CLEAR LAKES DENTAL FRANCHISE franchise FDD covers everything required to open the unit — franchise fee, build-out, equipment, signage, opening inventory, training, and a working-capital reserve. The High end of the range is the realistic budget. Most senior care buyers see actual costs cluster within 5-15% of the High range once site-specific real estate and construction costs are factored in.
Item 7 does not include personal living expenses, debt service, or the cost of due diligence (attorney, accountant, validation calls). Plan for an additional 20-30% of the Item 7 High range to cover these gaps. Lenders evaluating an SBA loan for a CLEAR LAKES DENTAL FRANCHISE franchise will look at the High range as the deal size, not the Low.
If Item 19 is disclosed, the franchisor has provided either gross sales averages, profit metrics, or both. Median figures are more reliable than averages — top performers can pull the mean upward by 30% or more. If Item 19 is blank, the franchisor declined to make financial performance representations. Absence of data is itself a signal — call 10-15 existing franchisees from Item 20 and ask directly.
Net worth and liquidity requirements published by CLEAR LAKES DENTAL FRANCHISE are the franchisor's filter for new buyers, not necessarily what your SBA lender will accept. SBA underwriting overlays its own credit, debt-service-coverage, and post-closing liquidity requirements on top. The published numbers are a floor, not a ceiling — many approved CLEAR LAKES DENTAL FRANCHISE franchise buyers carry significantly more capital than the listed minimums.
