Item 19
What Right at Home franchisees actually report earning
Median Net Billings
$1,334,579
Right at Home's 2026 FDD, Item 19, for the January 1, 2025 through December 31, 2025. Basis: Franchised Offices and Franchised Businesses described in the applicable tables.
Sample size: 390 Offices. The FDD also reports average net billings of $1,836,498. We lead with the median because an average is pulled upward by the strongest Offices; the median is the middle Office.
What the franchisor excluded from this figure
- The FDD's Item 19 does not include any Conversion Franchised Businesses.
This is a disclosure of what some existing Offices reported, not a projection of what a new Right at Home Office would earn. Your results will differ.

How many Right at Home outlets there are, and how many closed
Right at Home ended 2025 with 566 franchised outlets and 6 company-owned outlets. In that year 29 franchised outlets opened and 2 left the system.
Three years at a glance
From 2023 through 2025, Right at Home opened 90 franchised outlets and 16 outlets left the system. That is a net gain of 70, from 496 to 566 franchised outlets. Of the outlets that left, 10 were terminated, 4 were not renewed, and 2 closed for other reasons. Those openings and departures do not add up to that change, because the FDD's own Item 20 row for 2024 does not add up either. We publish the franchisor's figures exactly as printed; see the note under the table below.
On average, about 1.0% of franchised outlets left the system each year, roughly 1 in 96.
Our arithmetic from the FDD's Item 20 table below. "Left the system" counts every outlet the franchisor reports as terminated, not renewed, bought back, or closed for other reasons.
