Bottom line
- COSTTotal investment $85K – $139K including a $50K franchise fee, 5.0% ongoing royalty.
- RETURNSItem 19 discloses a raw per-outlet Annual Gross Revenue table for 2023-2025 (7 franchised outlets + 1 affiliate outlet) rather than an average/median/high-low statistic; data is unaudited and franchisor states it excludes rent/operating expenses (no net income given).
- RISKVerdict A (Strongest tier), verdict score 61/100 (higher is better).
- DATAItem 19 reports Individual outlet actual historical Gross Revenue (2023-2025) for 7 franchised + 1 affiliate outlet; no franchisor-stated average, median, or net income figure rather than annual gross sales, so unit revenue is not directly comparable. Ask franchisees directly for full unit-level revenue.

Frequently asked questions
Frequently Asked Questions
How much does it cost to open a ACASA Senior Care franchise?
The total investment to open a ACASA Senior Care franchise ranges from $85K – $139K, with an initial franchise fee of $50K. This includes real estate, equipment, inventory, and working capital as disclosed in their Franchise Disclosure Document (FDD).
What do ACASA Senior Care franchise owners earn?
ACASA Senior Care does not disclose average franchise owner earnings in their FDD Item 19. Not all franchisors are required to make financial performance representations. We recommend asking existing franchisees directly about their financial experience.
What is Item 19 in the ACASA Senior Care FDD?
The FDD section where a franchisor may disclose financial performance of its outlets. Disclosure is optional and formats vary; figures are typically gross sales, which is revenue before expenses, not profit. FranchiseVerdict extracts these figures directly from the ACASA Senior Care FDD and qualifies whose outlets they describe.
What is ACASA Senior Care's franchise failure rate?
SBA 7(a) loan charge-off data is not available for ACASA Senior Care (fewer than 10 loans on file). Charge-off rates are one way to gauge franchise risk, but not all franchise loans go through the SBA program. We recommend reviewing turnover and closure data in the FDD and speaking with current franchisees.
How many ACASA Senior Care franchise locations are there?
As of their most recent FDD filing, ACASA Senior Care has 8 total units in the United States, including 7 franchised units and 1 company-owned units.
Is ACASA Senior Care a good franchise to buy?
FranchiseVerdict rates ACASA Senior Care as a A-grade franchise with a verdict score of 61 out of 100 (higher is better), based on our analysis of investment costs, revenue data, SBA loan performance, and growth trends. Our rating is based solely on publicly available FDD and government data; we recommend speaking with current franchisees before making any investment decision. This is not investment advice.
