* Average Gross Profit and Average Net Profit (Operating Profit) were calculated by applying the average percentages from Part II: Franchisee Entity Financial Data (61.1% for Gross Profit, 28.3% for Operating Profit) to the average annual Gross Revenue of $140,390 from Part I.

In the booming home services sector, Green Home Solutions stands out with its eco-friendly indoor air quality focus—but Item 19's revenue disclosures paint a picture far humbler than the green hype might suggest. With 198 locations after 15 years of franchising, the system's slow expansion hints at challenges in scaling this niche remediation model. What do the earnings and stability metrics really reveal about landing in a protected territory? Unlock the data to see if this $150K-ish play delivers healthy returns.
Item 7 details a total investment of $115,957 to $199,347, including a $55,000 franchise fee, with ongoing fees at a tiered 8.25%-10% royalty (minimum $740/month per unit for 1-2 territories), 1.25% brand fund, and $295-$500 monthly website fee. Item 19, commendably disclosed, reports average gross revenues of $140,390 and median of $108,041 across units, with estimated profits ranging $38,888-$39,730—tight margins after expenses in a low-overhead service model. Ten SBA loans averaging $127,250 signal accessible financing, but the modest topline raises flags for ROI timelines exceeding five years at these levels.
System health per Item 20 shows minimal growth from 197 to 198 locations (+1%), with 27 projected new units offering optimism amid 7 terminations, 1 non-renewal, and 1 transfer. Litigation in Items 3 and 20 centers on territory disputes and compliance lapses, underscoring execution risks in mold remediation and air purification. For hands-on operators eyeing residential and property manager clients, the protected territories and add-on services provide defensibility, but stagnant expansion and sub-$150K revenues suggest this is a grind-it-out investment rather than a high-flyer—best for eco-passionates tolerant of slim profits.
