Score breakdown · what drove the 59 / 100 verdict
- 01MINOROnly 5 franchised units with unknown growth trajectory indicates extremely small, unproven system with minimal track record
- 02MINORNo Item 19 (Average Unit Volume) disclosure means franchisor won't share revenue/profitability data—cannot validate ROI claims
- 03MEDHigh initial investment ($50k-$106k) paired with 5-year term and no disclosed average revenue creates uncertain payback period
- 04MINORTiny unit count (5) makes territory protection claim difficult to validate and raises questions about franchisor's ability to support growth

Frequently asked questions
Frequently Asked Questions
How much does it cost to open a Nexus Property Management franchise?
The total investment to open a Nexus Property Management franchise ranges from $50K – $106K, with an initial franchise fee of $25K. This includes real estate, equipment, inventory, and working capital as disclosed in their Franchise Disclosure Document (FDD).
What do Nexus Property Management franchise owners earn?
Nexus Property Management 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 Nexus Property Management 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 Nexus Property Management FDD and qualifies whose outlets they describe.
What is Nexus Property Management's franchise failure rate?
SBA 7(a) loan charge-off data is not available for Nexus Property Management (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 Nexus Property Management franchise locations are there?
As of their most recent FDD filing, Nexus Property Management has 5 total units in the United States, including 4 franchised units and 1 company-owned units. 2 new units were opened in the latest reporting year.
Is Nexus Property Management a good franchise to buy?
FranchiseVerdict rates Nexus Property Management as a A-grade franchise with a verdict score of 59 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.
