Uniform Franchise Offering Circular

My wife is looking at a home-based business that happens to be a franchise. She talked to the regional manager (herself a franchisee) who praised the company. My wife was then referred by her to the corporate HQ. She emailed the company and requested information and a copy of the UFOC. The company told her she would have to pay a $90 information fee to receive this. Is this a common practice among franchisors?Thanks,-Top

I bought a franchise several years ago. Before I bought it, I checked into literally dozens of franchises and got UFOC on them. I also physically visited a number at their headquarters.
There`s tons and tons of franchises available, just don`t ever pay for a UFOC if you decide to get involved in one.
