How much does a HOMEstretch franchise make?

HOMEstretch is one of the franchisors that answers this on the record: its most recent FDD makes an Item 19 financial performance representation — actual unit earnings figures, disclosed by the franchisor itself. The headline figure did not machine-read cleanly from this filing, so we don't print one; Item 19 of the source FDD has the tables. See every home services brand that discloses earnings in the Home services & home improvement franchises with disclosed Item 19 earnings ranking.

HOMEstretch franchise profit vs. revenue

Revenue is not profit. An Item 19 almost always reports sales — what a location takes in — not what an owner keeps. Out of that number come HOMEstretch's 7.25% royalty, the ad fund, rent, payroll, supplies and debt service. No FDD tells you a HOMEstretch franchise's profit, because profit depends on your site, your rent and how you run it — so treat any "HOMEstretch franchise profit" figure quoted elsewhere as someone's estimate, not a disclosure.

HOMEstretch lawsuits & legal history (FDD Item 3)

We do not publish a litigation answer for HOMEstretch. Item 3 could not be read reliably from this particular filing, and a claim that a company has no legal history is not one to make on a failed parse — so we say we do not know instead. Item 3 of the FDD itself is the place to check; the methodology page explains what we do and do not machine-read.

HOMEstretch closures & failure rate

Before you sign, HOMEstretch will hand you a list of current owners to call as references — and they choose who's on that list. It won't include the owners who quit, got bought out, or were forced out last year. The FDD does report that number, even though the reference list leaves those people off. Below is what HOMEstretch's most recent filing shows, and whether it's normal for a home services of this kind.

The closest thing an FDD has to a failure rate is Item 20 — outlet openings, closures, terminations and non-renewals, reported by the franchisor. HOMEstretch's latest tables show a growing franchised network. Its franchised-outlet closure rate — closures, terminations and non-renewals against outlets — is 4.5%, against a home services median of 5.1% — at or better than the category. Net franchised outlets moved +97 to 164 in the latest reported year.

Who owns HOMEstretch?

HOMEstretch's franchise is offered by Homestretch Home Services II LLC — the franchisor named on the cover of its most recently filed Franchise Disclosure Document (2026), and the entity a franchisee actually signs with. That name comes straight off the filing at WI DFI; it identifies the franchisor, not necessarily the ultimate parent company behind it.
