Right at Home franchise in Pennsylvania: what the public record shows
Franchisees of Right at Home in Pennsylvania have taken 6 SBA loans since 1991 (average $215,833)— too few resolved loans in-state to publish a local failure rate (we require a resolved cohort, never extrapolate), so the brand's national rate of 3.2% is the better guide. Its latest FDD Item 20 state table reports 31 franchised outlets in Pennsylvania (fiscal 2018) — about 0.24 per 100k residents.

Same sector, same state, same public records — how Right at Home compares to the systems a buyer in Pennsylvania would actually be choosing between. Local rates under 10 resolved loans are marked thin, not hidden.
A broker is paid by the franchisor to place you. An independent CPA is paid by you — and the job is pressure-testing Right at Home's numbers, including talking you out of a bad deal.
