Should I sign a non-compete contract?

[Alex Locklear]

I interviewed with a homevestors franchise over the weekend and they would like me to join the team.

They said though, after having employee's quit to do their own thing after learning some things, that I would have to sign a non-compete contract.

What exactly does that mean if I sign it? What if I were to decide I didn't want to be with them anymore and instead go out and do my own thing? I don't want to sign something, end up not liking it, and not have an option.

Any help is grateful!!
