What This Means (2025 FDD)
According to Counselor Realty's 2025 Franchise Disclosure Document, the company will send an invoice for the Website Fee at the beginning of each month. The franchisee is then required to pay the Website Fee on or before the 20th day of that month.
The Website Fee consists of a $75 charge for each office location, including any Additional or Extension Offices, plus $25 for each licensed agent who chooses to have an optional agent website provided by Counselor Realty. For example, if a franchisee has 10 agents with optional websites, the total Website Fee would be $325 ($75 plus $25 multiplied by 10).
It's important to note that Counselor Realty retains the right to increase the Website Fee during the term of the Franchise Agreement at its sole discretion. This means that franchisees should be prepared for potential increases in this monthly fee, which could impact their overall operating costs. Franchisees should factor in potential fee increases when projecting expenses.
