Real Estate Franchises
with Better Business Models Attract Agents
Veterans of the real estate
business are seeking just the right franchise opportunity. These
top agents are looking for a Real Estate Franchise
that breaks the mold and offers a truly innovative business
model. Real estate entrepreneurs understand that franchising
represents one of the strongest investment vehicles available
today, and Real Estate Franchises are
especially enticing to long-time agents. By investing in their
own Real Estate Franchise, real estate
entrepreneurs can dramatically increase their income, while
managing it themselves and building equity. However, in a market
that is increasingly sensitive to broader market conditions, the
challenge for real estate investors lies in finding a
Real Estate Franchise that offers the right balance of
risk and return.
The type of franchise is as
important as the franchise concept. "Regional developer
franchises," which grant the investor the right to sell and
market the Real Estate Franchise in a given
territory, are an ideal investment opportunity that should be
given thoughtful scrutiny. Franchising allows franchise
investors to be in business for themselves, just not by
themselves. Franchisors provide a proven system of tools,
procedures, and methodology that, if implemented as specified in
the Franchise Operations Manual, will most likely lead to
success.
When evaluating Real
Estate Franchises, it is important to consider whether
the franchise is limited to a particular type of transaction or
to certain kinds of properties. For instance, the effect of
increasing interest rates is much more dramatic when the
franchise system is designed for sales only, perhaps of a
particular type of property. When rates rise, sales take longer,
prices fall, and the pool of qualified buyers shrinks. This
leads to an increase in the rental market as more people rent
rather than buy real estate. Obviously, a franchise system that
works within such limits suffers when conditions become less
favorable in one sector of the real estate industry.
Franchises that anticipate, plan
for, and devise a system to thrive in dynamic market conditions
are rare, but Florida-based

pitfalls of the average Real Estate Franchise.
Rent 1 & Sale 1 Realty franchises manage both sales and rentals,
providing a built-in hedge against the effects of interest rate
fluctuations. The business model offers franchisees the ability
to succeed in any economic environment.
A Real Estate Franchise
should also provide the tools the franchisee needs, especially
easy access to listings and the ability to track customers'
needs and interactions with the office. Finally, the royalties
the franchisee pays should be structured so that the franchisee
is not discouraged by a constant and never-ending drain on
profits "off the top". Rent 1 & Sale 1 Realty caps the royalties
that franchisees pay, greatly motivating them to hit the cap and
keep more their money. Since royalty fees are usually passed on
to associates in the franchise, the limited obligation passes
incentives along to agents as well.
In addition, agents establish
themselves more quickly in their communities by providing both
kinds of service across all kinds of properties. The franchise
attracts top quality agents faster because of the variety of
business the agent is able to pursue. Rent 1 & Sale 1 Realty
