The franchise is also discoverable through the Neighborly mobile app and platform.

Revenue is generated on a project and time-based fee structure, with upfront cost estimates provided after on-site or initial consultation and financing available through third-party lenders. The customer base is concentrated in residential homeowners as the primary segment, with a secondary commercial segment spanning retail, restaurants, healthcare, corporate offices, government, hospitality, financial institutions, and manufacturing.
