The vendor opportunity at Property Management

This real-estate franchisor reports 408 total locations, 406 of them franchised, with franchised outlets up 1.754% year over year in its 2026 FDD. Royalty is tiered — 7% of Gross Revenue up to $35,000, 6% to $75,000 and 5% above, plus 5% of Brokerage Revenue — on a 10-year initial term, and Item 19 makes a financial performance representation for the system.

Who controls software purchasing

Item 11's Computer System mandate is set at the franchisor level rather than left to individual operators. The FDD names Steven Hart (CEO and Co-Founder), Stuart McReynolds (President and Chief Operating Officer), and Jeremiah Cundiff (Chief Growth Officer) among its officers.

Tech named in the FDD, and what is actually required

The filing's own words require franchisees to use PMiSOFT for residential-door or commercial-square-footage accounts, purchase PMiSTR for short-term rentals and PMiMULTI for multifamily management, and buy PMiPrograms and PMiWorkFlow at the rates set in Item 6. Item 8 additionally designates PMiWARE and a Digital Essentials Package as items franchisees must buy from the franchisor or an affiliate. Franchisees must also run current Windows-class hardware with high-speed internet access to operate this electronic system.

Procurement, renewals, and timing

Franchisees purchase from designated Approved Vendors listed in the PMiWAY Operations Manual, and any proposed alternative supplier needs written approval. The franchisor estimates required purchases and leases at 10% to 25% of both initial and ongoing costs. The initial term is 10 years; renewal requires notice, no default or money owed, a signed release and then-current agreement, and a renewal fee, with royalties, advertising fees, and territory terms all subject to change at renewal.
