Reviewed figures from each brand's Franchise Disclosure Document (FDD), side by side. Each figure carries its FDD year and page. This is not a ranking or recommendation, and the two FDDs may cover different years and location groups.
Before you compare
- Counselor Realty figures come from its 2025 FDD and Hunting Lease Network figures from its 2026 FDD, so the years differ.
