Home Instead Item 19 Deep Dive: $2.26M Median Across 603 Franchised Territories
Home Instead's most recent Item 19 reports a $2.26M median across 603 franchised territories — among the highest senior-care AUVs disclosed. The low investment ($91K-$270K) makes the AUV-to-investment ratio one of the strongest in any franchise category.
Brand AnalysisHome Service Franchise Costs Compared: Plumbing, Cleaning, Restoration, Lawn Care & More
Home service franchises offer lower overhead than restaurants and strong recession resistance. Compare investment costs, royalties, and territory sizes across plumbing, cleaning, restoration, lawn care, HVAC, and handyman brands.
Brand AnalysisHomeVestors Item 19 Deep Dive: $287K Median Across 898 Franchises
HomeVestors' 2026 FDD reports a $287K median across 898 franchised territories — but the unit-economics story is unique: the franchisee buys houses, renovates, and resells. Revenue is one metric; capital deployment and inventory cycle are the real ones.
