Beyond the filing

Everything else on this page is quoted from Comfort Keepers's franchise disclosure document. This is not — it is measured off the open web, it is not verified by the franchisor, and it never affects the Factbook Score.

What it really costs

Every cost figure this brand's filing discloses — not just the headline range

Item 7 reports a total range, not a full line-item breakdown, in this brand's filing excerpt — the franchise fee is the only cost we can show separately today.

Costs more to open than 68% of senior care franchises on this site with a disclosed Item 7 range (58 compared). Computed from total investment, not a figure from the filing itself.

Earnings disclosure

Does the franchisor share performance data? No

This brand's filing does not include an Item 19 financial performance representation. That's common — a large share of franchisors disclose nothing here — but it means you should ask for unit-level economics directly during discovery calls. Compare against senior care brands that do disclose one.

Common questions

Answered from this brand's own FDD filing. Where the filing is silent, the question is left out rather than answered with a guess.

How much does a Comfort Keepers franchise cost?

Comfort Keepers' most recent Franchise Disclosure Document puts the total estimated initial investment at $120K–$191K. That is Item 7, which covers everything needed to open — the franchise fee, build-out, equipment, opening inventory and initial working capital. The initial franchise fee itself is $55,000, and is included in that range.

What royalty does Comfort Keepers charge?

Comfort Keepers charges a continuing royalty of 5% of gross sales, disclosed in Item 6. A separate brand or advertising fund contribution of 2% applies on top. Royalties are charged on revenue, not profit, so they are owed whether or not the outlet is profitable.

Does Comfort Keepers disclose earnings (Item 19)?

No. Comfort Keepers makes no financial performance representation in its FDD. Item 19 is the only optional item under the FTC Franchise Rule, so omitting it is lawful and common — but it means the franchisor publishes no revenue or profit figures for its outlets, and any figure quoted elsewhere is not from the filing.

Does Comfort Keepers give a protected territory?

No. Comfort Keepers' Item 12 does not grant an exclusive or protected territory, which means the franchisor may place another outlet nearby.

Facts on this page are sourced from Comfort Keepers' Franchise Disclosure Document.

Item 6 brand fund is the lesser of $802.89/month or 2% of gross revenue; local advertising separately required at $1,000/month minimum or 2% (whichever greater); no tech fee currently charged (subject to change). Item 12 marked not-exclusively-protected because the FDD states the franchisor expressly reserves the right to compete within the granted territory. Item 17 specific term/radius not resolvable from the fetched excerpt. Item 19 not provided. Item 20 table not present in fetched excerpt; document does note an affiliate (SDX) operated 5 franchised businesses as of 8/31/2025, which is not a full outlet table.
