The total initial investment necessary to begin operation of an Oasis Senior Advisors business ranges from $63,089 to $109,239. This includes costs such as the Initial Franchise Fee, which typically ranges between $40,000 and $80,000, along with other start-up expenses like hardware and software, local marketing, and NAF Contributions [p.1, p.18].
What is the initial franchise fee?
The initial franchise fee is paid on the Opening Date after receiving all required training and opening for business. The specific amount is set forth on Attachment I [p.125].
What are the ongoing royalty and advertising fees?
The franchisee must pay a minimum royalty fee each month, which is outlined in Table 1 of the FDD [p.77]. Additionally, the franchisee must contribute to the National Advertising Fund, starting from the first full month after the opening date, at the greater of $200 or 2% of monthly Gross Revenue [p.24]. This NAF contribution may be modified with at least 30 days' notice, but increases will not exceed 10% in any 12-month period [p.25].
How long is the initial franchise agreement, and can I renew it?
The initial franchise agreement lasts for 10 years from the Effective Date [p.74]. You have the option to renew it for one additional 10-year term upon compliance with certain conditions at the end of the Initial Term [p.74].
Can I sell or transfer my franchise, and what does that require?
According to the FDD, you generally cannot transfer ownership of your franchise without the franchisor's permission, except for good cause [p.56]. Good cause includes but is not limited to specific reasons determined by the franchisor.
On what grounds can the franchisor terminate the agreement?
The franchisor can terminate the franchise agreement if the franchisee fails to comply with any lawful provision of the franchise agreement and does not cure such failure within a reasonable period, which cannot exceed 30 days [p.56]. This is specified under "good cause" for termination by the franchisor.
