Notes

1. The high estimate assumes your space will require more extensive construction in the upfit process. These numbers do assume that you will have a tenant improvement allowance needed to retrofit your space. You must lease or provide a suitable facility for the operation of the franchised School. You may choose a larger facility, but it will increase your operating costs. Your cost to lease or purchase space is difficult to quantify because there are many variables that may impact your overall costs including landlord contribution, the size of your location, rates for construction, personnel, freight, vendor pricing and taxes, overall costs and efficiencies in your market. Your landlord, developer, or builder may refund your security deposit or other fees paid, but most will not refund rental payments or other payments made. You should ask your leasing agent or landlord about their refund policy before you sign a lease agreement.
