Bottom line

  • Total investment $108K – $136K including a $60K franchise fee, 4.0% ongoing royalty.
  • No Item 19 financial performance data disclosed — the franchisor chose not to publish revenue figures.
  • Rated MODERATE with a risk score of 65/100.
  • No Item 19 financial performance representation. Without franchisor-disclosed revenue data, you'll need to gather unit economics directly from existing franchisees.

Risk & Legal

65
Risk · 0-100
MODERATE65 / 100

Regal Maid Service is a micro-franchise with critical transparency gaps (no revenue data), questionable franchisor stability (going concern = false), and insufficient unit history to validate the business model.

Score breakdown · what drove the 65 / 100 rating

  1. 01MEDNo Item 19 (average revenue/net income) disclosed — impossible to assess ROI or payback period on $108k-$136k investment
  2. 02MINORExtremely small system (only 3 units) with no demonstrated scalability or unit economics
  3. 03HIGHGoing Concern = False indicates potential franchisor financial instability or operational uncertainty
  4. 04MINORHigh franchise fee ($60k) represents 55% of total investment with minimal track record to justify it
  5. 05HIGHNo litigation disclosure combined with 'Going Concern' flag suggests possible undisclosed legal or financial issues
