There is a speciall category - Low Cost Franchises. Hm.... but prices are not so low in the catgory. The lowest is $15,000 and it is Compound Profit with their multiple opportunities like financing, factoring, equipment leasing, purchase order financing, lines of credit.... Sounds very specific. Something like money collector.
Let's revert and explore home based business category. These should be cheaper anyway.
If you think you are creative personality, why should not give it a try?
The similar one is $ 20,000 for Home Blinds. But for this amount you are getting all the necessary support and training from them just to jump in the ready business. Find it here http://www.bizbuysell.com/franchise-for-sale/home-blinds.
Other business to consider here is housecleaning ($40,000), seniors helping ($200,000), interior design ($35,000), dog lovers ($80,000) and many more to search through, and it is really exciting.
If you love dogs, I gues this is the perfect choice - your own dog training school!
