Caring Transitions Named Top Franchise in Entrepreneur’s Highly Competitive Franchise 500

The nationwide provider dedicated to assisting families with comprehensive relocation, downsizing and estate-sales solutions during life's difficult transitions stands beside the nation’s top brands, celebrated for its support, growth and brand strength.

CINCINNATI, OH  – Caring Transitions, the 300-unit relocation, downsizing, and estate-sales franchise, has ranked on Entrepreneur’s 45th annual Franchise 500, a highly competitive and incredibly comprehensive franchise ranking. The Franchise 500 is an invaluable resource for prospective franchisees and a celebrated recognition among franchisors. This year, Entrepreneur received more applications than ever, making the 2024 ranking even more competitive. Still, Caring Transitions secured No. 367 on the list and was recognized for its impressive performance in areas including growth, financial strength and stability and brand power.

“Overall, 2023 was a very strong year — we are on target to hit every goal we set out to achieve as a company,” said Caring Transitions Brand President Ray Fabik. “In a year full of economic challenges, we have seen time and time again that we are a ‘needs business’, not a ‘wants business’. We are essential in the public eye. That is why we are headed toward another year of double-digit growth.”

Over the past 45 years, the Franchise 500 has become the go-to measure for franchisors’ successes and franchisees’ research. Last year, Entrepreneur received submissions from over 1,300 franchisors hoping to be ranked among the top brands. Each franchise brand was then analyzed based on its costs and fees; size and growth; support; and brand strength to create a ranking of the top 500 franchise brands. Caring Transitions’ position on the ranking is a testament to its strength as a franchise opportunity. In 2023 Caring Transitions ranked No.1 in Estate Sales for Entrepreneur, which again speaks volumes to the growth and success of the brand. 

Caring Transitions helps seniors relocate by spending time at their homes, helping them pack and organize their belongings, then moving those belongings to their new home and setting them up in a way that feels comfortable. Then, the team returns to the original location to arrange and host an in-person or online estate sale through its proprietary platform, CTBids. In 2023, the introduction of the CTBids mobile app made it even easier for clients to bid on unique and everyday treasures, Fabik says.
