REAL DEALS ON HOME DECOR Franchise Analysis

Home decor retail thrives on trends, yet Real Deals on Home Decor has franchised since 2006 without budging unit count lately. Item 19 discloses revenues painting a tale of highs and lows across locations, while SBA financing history flags both opportunity and caution. Does this system's stability mask untapped potential or signal saturation—worth betting your capital on?

Item 7 lays out the financial entry: initial investment spans $142,850 to $268,400, with a $30,000 franchise fee. Ongoing fees hit 5% royalty plus 1.5% ad fund and $260 monthly for POS/technology. Item 19 reveals average gross revenue at $498,259 but median just $337,007, signaling top performers drive averages up—many units lag, implying location and operations dictate success in this consumer-driven niche.

System health shows 46 locations, flat from 45 in 2023 to 2024 (0% growth), with only 3 projected new units and 2 transfers. SBA data shines: 31 loans averaging $197,742 with a low 3.2% default rate, suggesting franchisees secure funding and mostly repay. For investors, wide revenue spreads and stagnation warn of execution risks in competitive retail, but accessible costs and solid financing make it viable if you nail high-traffic spots—median sales cover fees but leave slim margins without outperformance.
