What This Means (2025 FDD)
According to Exit's 2025 Franchise Disclosure Document, the minimum office space requirement for a new franchise is directly related to the density of the territory. A rural territory requires the smallest office space, while a high-density territory requires the largest.
Specifically, a rural density territory requires a minimum of 750 square feet. A low-density territory requires a minimum of 1,000 square feet. For a medium-density territory, the minimum office space is 1,500 square feet. The largest space requirement is for a high-density territory, which requires a minimum of 2,000 square feet.
This graduated scale means franchisees in more populated areas with greater business potential need to invest in larger premises. This likely reflects the need for more agents and staff to handle the increased business volume in denser areas. Prospective franchisees should carefully consider the territory type they are purchasing, as it will directly impact their initial real estate costs and ongoing operational expenses.
