Frequently Asked Questions

How much does a real estate franchise cost?

Real estate brokerage franchises range from $25K-$300K+ depending on the brand and territory size. Home inspection and property management franchises typically fall in the $50K-$150K range. FDD Item 7 details all costs.

What are real estate franchise royalty structures?

Real estate franchise royalties vary significantly — some charge per-agent fees, others take a percentage of gross commission income (typically 5-8%), and some use hybrid models. Item 6 of the FDD explains the exact fee structure.

Are real estate franchises affected by market cycles?

Yes — real estate franchises are sensitive to housing market conditions, interest rates, and economic cycles. However, established brands with diversified services (property management, commercial) can mitigate this. Item 19 data can show revenue consistency.
