SHOWHOMES
Showhomes franchises provide services to residential real estate properties, including home management (where home managers live in and maintain properties as model homes), staging, decorating, interior updating, makeovers, and the sale/rental of furniture, artwork, and accessories. Franchisees earn revenue from fees paid by homeowners (one-time, monthly, success fees) and home managers (initial and ongoing fees), as well as from sales and services. The target market includes private homeowners, builders, financial institutions, relocation companies, real estate firms, and asset management companies.

Financial Performance
Item 19 Financial Performance
Data Based On: 16 Reporting Franchisees (out of 19 total locations) for the 12-month period ended December 31, 2024. These exclude 1 licensed location, 1 location not operating for the full 12 months, and 4 locations that closed in 2024.
* Average gross revenue and median gross revenue for 16 reporting franchisees in 2024 were directly extracted. Revenue top quartile was calculated as the average of the top 4 highest revenues: ($1,729,131 + $1,198,347 + $951,108 + $743,725) / 4 = $1,155,577.75. Revenue bottom quartile was calculated as the average of the bottom 4 lowest revenues: ($307,768 + $169,185 + $156,598 + $102,688) / 4 = $184,059.75. The document explicitly states that financial performance representations do not reflect costs of sales, operating expenses, or other costs/expenses to obtain net income or profit, hence all profit/EBITDA-related fields are null.

Picture turning vacant homes into lived-in showplaces by having managers live there rent-free while staging for sales. Showhomes blends property management with interior design in a niche real estate service. Item 19 earnings data from this tight-knit system of just 19 units hints at solid performance potential, but recent location shrinkage raises eyebrows—what's driving the pivot?
Item 7 lays out the initial investment from $48,895 to $158,095, including a $19,995 franchise fee that covers training and territory rights. Ongoing fees stack up with tiered royalties of 7-10% on services (minimum $750/month), 5% on products, 3-7% on updates, a 2% brand fund (minimum $140/month, up to 4%), and $295 monthly tech fee—potentially eating 10%+ of revenue. Yet Item 19 shines: average gross revenue clocks $560,899, median $416,288 across franchised units, suggesting top performers crush it in real estate hotspots serving homeowners, builders, and banks.
System maturity since 1994 shows resilience, but 2023's 23 locations dropped to 20 in 2024 (-13% growth), with 2 terminations and 2 non-renewals. Still, 8 projected new units signal optimism. For a home-based operation in property management, these figures mean scalability if you nail local realtor partnerships—median sales cover fees comfortably, but contraction flags execution risks in a cyclical market.
Analysis based on the 2025 Franchise Disclosure Document. All figures should be independently verified before making investment decisions.
