What This Means (2025 FDD)
According to Caring Transitions' 2025 Franchise Disclosure Document, a prospective franchisee can reserve a specific territory for 30 days by paying a $5,000 deposit and submitting a Remittance Form. This deposit is considered fully earned and non-refundable upon receipt by Caring Transitions.
The FDD states that the $5,000 deposit serves as consideration for Caring Transitions removing the territory from the market for 30 days, preventing others from purchasing it during that period. The deposit will be applied towards the initial franchise fee if the franchisee proceeds with the franchise agreement.
If a prospective Caring Transitions franchisee wishes to reserve a second territory, the required deposit is $10,000. This deposit structure allows potential franchisees to secure their desired location while they finalize their decision-making process, but it's crucial to understand that the deposit is non-refundable, regardless of whether they ultimately proceed with the franchise.
