Home Halo is a purpose-driven senior care franchise built to meet the rising demand for in-home care among veterans and aging adults. Offering a dual-channel approach that serves both VA-funded and private-pay clients, the brand combines compassionate caregiving with a streamlined business model, cutting-edge tools and strong leadership. With a focus on caregiver quality, client outcomes and operational support, Home Halo empowers franchisees to deliver ethical, high-quality care while building scalable businesses in their communities.
Home Halo was founded in Denver, Colorado, by Dan Deak, a seasoned leader in the senior care industry with more than a decade of experience. Inspired by his personal journey caring for his mother after a life-changing injury, Deak launched Home Halo to bring ethical, high-quality home care to seniors and veterans.
Mission: To empower seniors and veterans to age with dignity and independence through compassionate, nurse-led in-home care.
Vision: To lead the next generation of home care by delivering exceptional service, empowering franchisees and innovating with integrity.
Home Halo has franchise opportunities available in all 50 states of the U.S. Visit the franchise website for more information on available markets.
Initial Costs: The estimated initial investment required to begin operation of a Home Halo franchise ranges from $92,900 to $153,800.
Initial Franchise Fee: Home Halo franchisees pay a non-refundable initial franchise fee of $49,000 for a single territory covering approximately 250,000 people. The fee is due when the franchise agreement is signed.
Veteran Discount: Qualified military veterans who were honorably discharged from any branch of the U.S. Armed Forces are eligible for a 20% discount on the initial franchise fee for their first territory, reducing the fee to $39,200. Veterans must request the discount during the franchise application process and provide proof of military service.
Ongoing Fees: According to the 2026 FDD, Home Halo franchisees are responsible for the following ongoing payments and fees:
| Type of Fee | Amount |
| Royalty | Greater of 5% of gross sales or minimum royalty fee/week |
| Brand Development Fund | 2% of gross sales/week |
| Franchisee Directed Local Marketing | Greater of 2% of gross sales or $1,000 per territory/month |
| Technology | Up to $750/month |
| Care Management System | Greater of $12 per client or $200/month |
ROI Potential: Home Halo's Franchise Disclosure Document includes financial performance data from two company-owned locations operating in Albuquerque, New Mexico, and Urbandale, Iowa, during the 2025 calendar year:
| Location | Gross Sales | Labor Costs | Expenses | Fees | Direct Gross Profit |
| Albuquerque | $2,234,921 | ($936,157) | ($111,402) | ($201,662) | $985,700 |
| Urbandale | $486,045 | ($242,885) | ($69,366) | ($48,963) | $124,832 |
Home Halo's pre-opening support is built around a structured launch process that helps franchisees prepare every aspect of the business before opening. New owners follow the brand's proven 160-step launch program, developed from Deak's experience opening hundreds of senior care agencies.
Throughout the process, franchisees receive guidance on business setup, licensing, caregiver recruitment, marketing, lead generation, referral development, client acquisition and Veterans Affairs (VA) credentialing. The Home Halo team works alongside franchisees through each milestone, helping to ensure they are fully prepared to begin serving clients and growing their business from day one.
Home Halo helps franchisees succeed through the “Frank” Method, a coaching approach inspired by Deak’s father, a legendary baseball coach who emphasized mastering the fundamentals. By focusing on the basics of business ownership — such as following the model, adapting to challenges and staying consistent — Home Halo equips franchisees with the tools and confidence to thrive.
Home Halo provides proprietary systems and tech tools to streamline daily operations, scheduling and care management. These tools support efficient service delivery and improve caregiver satisfaction.
No industry experience required. Home Halo prefers backgrounds in leadership, sales and business development. Franchisees must have a passion for serving seniors and veterans, as well as a strong commitment to community involvement and relationship building.
While Home Halo prefers hands-on ownership, semi-absentee ownership is allowed with a dedicated manager in place.
Home Halo does not offer direct or indirect financing to franchisees.
The home care industry is growing rapidly. The primary driver is the rising population of adults aged 65 and older, who are more likely to face conditions or injuries that limit their ability to live independently. Industry revenue has grown at a rate of 4.6% to an estimated $173.6 billion over the past five years, including expected growth of 4.1% in 2026.
Home Halo stands out in the home care industry with its nurse-led assessment model that drives high conversion rates, dual revenue channels through VA and private-pay clients, and a proprietary launch system backed by strong founder-led support.
The brand’s primary competitors include Home Instead, Visiting Angels, Comfort Keepers and Right at Home*.
