Anchored Tiny Homes differentiates itself through a scalable, shop-oriented build process combined with fully compliant permitting and a strong ROI model.
Here's what you would need to invest if you were to start this franchise. These costs are provided by the franchisor in the Franchise Disclosure Document.
Anchored Tiny Homes provides a detailed and multi-tiered training structure for franchisees to ensure operational success and compliance. The training includes the following programs:
Anchored Tiny Homes grants franchisees a defined Operating Territory, which may include a population of up to 300,000 people and can be supplemented with additional territories.
While this territory provides operational boundaries and marketing focus, it is not exclusive in the traditional sense. The franchisor agrees not to establish or license another Anchored Tiny Homes Business within the franchisee’s territory during the agreement term, provided the franchisee is not in default.
However, Anchored Tiny Homes reserves significant rights that limit the strength of territory protection. The franchisor may operate or authorize others to operate similar businesses under different trademarks or through alternative channels of distribution, such as internet or telemarketing, even within the franchisee's territory.
