| Real estate franchises stand to be one of the most popular franchise groups for 2010. After being aversely effected by the problems in the subprime market, not to mention the global economic recession, the real estate franchise sector is re-emerging as a blue chip investment for those interested in selling property.
Collectively, the real estate industry is decidedly looking forward, as opposed to backwards. Many made big profits during the housing bubble of the mid-naughties and the market has stagnated since. The conditions are now in place for the housing market to rebound, and franchising will perfectly position you to capitalize on this resurgence. If you are interested in working with the property market, there are a number of reasons why franchising might suit you. For one, this is one of the ‘most franchised’ industries out there today. Over 45% of real estates firms are franchises. Their business apparatus and familiarity with the marketplace will provide you with a clear entry point to a complex industry. Franchising works when a business is able to instill a sense of trust into its brand name to a large sector of the population. This is especially true with real estate franchises. Around 80% of respondents to a REALTORS study said that the franchise brand helped them to acquire listings. While the internet has given rise to the ‘sell it yourself’ trend, the reality is that most people look to established companies they can trust when buying or selling a home. Drive up and down Main Street, USA, and in all likelihood, the For Sale signs you see will all come from franchises. The homestead is American’s greatest investment, both financially and emotionally. Finding a new house, or deciding to give up the one you have, is a small ordeal and because of the huge amounts of money invested, people will turn to established names with a trusted business reputation. That’s why franchising works so well in the real estate sector. If you dream to sell property, why not partner with a franchise?
