What This Means (2025 FDD)
According to Beehive Homes' 2025 Franchise Disclosure Document, the franchisee is responsible for maintaining both the interior and exterior of the Beehive Homes location, along with the surrounding premises.

Furthermore, Beehive Homes can provide a 72-hour notice to the franchisee regarding failure to maintain the cleanliness, orderliness, sanitation, and repair. If the franchisee does not cure the default, Beehive Homes may enter the Home and correct whatever situation is necessary at the franchisee's cost. This ensures that all Beehive Homes locations consistently meet the franchisor's standards, protecting the brand's reputation and ensuring a uniform experience for residents.
