Before you compare
- Alair Homes figures come from its 2025 FDD and Bath Tune-Up figures from its 2026 FDD, so the years differ.
- Alair Homes discloses more than one business format, so the investment range spans formats; the full report breaks them out.
- Item 19 figures cover the location groups each FDD names (Alair Homes: 1, Bath Tune-Up: 5). Different groups are not directly comparable.
