Does Buildingstars track subfranchisees who have not communicated with their master franchisees, and if so, what is the timeframe that triggers inclusion in the list of subfranchisees who left the system?

According to Buildingstars's 2025 Franchise Disclosure Document, Buildingstars tracks subfranchisees who have not communicated with their master franchisees. Specifically, Buildingstars includes subfranchisees who have not communicated with their master franchisees within 10 weeks of the Application Date in the list of subfranchisees who have left the system.

This means that if a Buildingstars subfranchisee fails to communicate with their master franchisee for a period of 10 weeks, they are considered to have ceased doing business under the franchise agreement. This information is included in the list of subfranchisees who have been terminated, cancelled, not renewed, transferred, or otherwise voluntarily or involuntarily ceased to do business under the franchise agreement during the most recently completed fiscal year.

For a prospective franchisee, this indicates that Buildingstars monitors communication between subfranchisees and master franchisees. It also means that a lack of communication for a defined period can lead to being classified as having left the system, which could have implications for the subfranchisee's standing and future opportunities within the Buildingstars franchise network. Additionally, the FDD states that if you buy a Buildingstars franchise, your contact information may be disclosed to other buyers when you leave the franchise system.
