Selling a Club Pilates franchise requires franchisor approval, a transfer fee, and an approvable buyer, which makes it different from selling an independent business. Martin Navarro, Business Broker, guides Club Pilates owners through the transfer process across Los Angeles County, Ventura County, and surrounding areas.
Transferring a Club Pilates franchise means getting the franchisor to approve your buyer and meeting the requirements in your franchise agreement. The details below are specific to Club Pilates and should be confirmed against your current FDD.
Your exact terms are governed by your Club Pilates Franchise Disclosure Document and franchise agreement. I review these with you early so nothing is a surprise at closing.
A broker who understands the Club Pilates Franchise Disclosure Document and transfer requirements helps you reach buyers the franchisor will actually approve. That means fewer stalled deals and a faster path to close.

I am a licensed California business broker, DRE #02372118, a U.S. Marine Corps veteran, bilingual in English and Spanish, and a member of CABB and IBBA, affiliated with First Choice Business Brokers.

A Club Pilates franchise is valued on a multiple of seller's discretionary earnings, adjusted for the lease, equipment condition, remaining franchise term, and brand strength. Royalty and ad fund fees are reflected in the earnings.
Most Club Pilates resales take six to twelve months from valuation to close. Franchisor approval and buyer training can add time, so preparing your documents early keeps the sale on schedule.
