Does Buildingstars have the right to charge a fee for continuing advisory assistance?

According to Buildingstars's 2025 Franchise Disclosure Document, Buildingstars does reserve the right to charge franchisees a fee for continuing advisory assistance. Buildingstars will make available continuing advisory assistance in the operation of the franchise, rendered in such a manner and available from time to time, as Buildingstars may deem appropriate.

Buildingstars also reserves the right to be compensated for any travel expenses including, but not limited to, transportation, lodging, meals, and other expenses Buildingstars' employees incur while providing advisory assistance. This means that franchisees may incur additional costs beyond the advisory fee itself, depending on the nature and location of the assistance required.

This policy is fairly standard in the franchise industry, as franchisors often provide ongoing support and guidance to help franchisees succeed. However, the specific fees and expenses associated with this assistance can vary widely. Prospective Buildingstars franchisees should inquire about the typical frequency and cost of advisory assistance to budget accordingly and understand the potential financial implications.
