Beem_Light_Sauna Franchise · 2025 FDDAnswer from 2025 FDD Document
Our review of the Site Lease is for our own benefit only and is not intended to supplement or replace a review by your attorney.
We may require you to engage an attorney to review your Site Lease or purchase agreement for the Site that we have accepted and to supply us with reasonable documentation in connection with such review, including a lease abstract and confirmation that the terms in the agreement reflect the terms in any letter of intent between you and the third-party seller or lessor.

What This Means (2025 FDD)
According to Beem Light Sauna's 2025 Franchise Disclosure Document, the review of the Site Lease by the company is solely for their own benefit. Beem Light Sauna states that this review is not intended to act as a replacement for the franchisee's own attorney's review of the lease.
Beem Light Sauna may also require the franchisee to hire an attorney to review the Site Lease or purchase agreement. The franchisee must then supply Beem Light Sauna with documentation related to this review, such as a lease abstract and confirmation that the terms in the agreement reflect the terms in any letter of intent between the franchisee and the third-party seller or lessor.
This means that while Beem Light Sauna does review the lease, the franchisee is still responsible for ensuring that the lease is in their best interest and that they understand all of the terms and conditions. It is highly recommended that franchisees seek independent legal counsel to protect their interests, as the franchisor's review serves a different purpose.
