What This Means (2025 FDD)
I am unable to provide the royalty fee for a Christies International Real Estate franchise, as this information was not present in the provided excerpts. The excerpts do mention an Advertising Fund Fee, which as of the effective date, has not been established. The franchisor may implement, begin collecting, and increase the Advertising Fund Fee at any time upon written notice to the franchisee; however, the Advertising Fund Fee will not exceed three percent (3%) of Gross Revenue. If the Advertising Fund Fee is collected, the franchisee will pay the Advertising Fund Fee in the same manner and at the same time as the Royalty Fee.
To find the specific royalty fee, you should review Item 6 of the 2025 Christies International Real Estate Franchise Disclosure Document. If the royalty fee is not specified in Item 6, you should speak with a current franchisee or contact the franchisor directly.
