Franchise

Year after year it becomes increasingly difficult for the independent real estate company to compete with national and regional mega brokers who can offer agents resources made available by broad affiliates and large scale buying power. An attractive method to maintain control of your business while offering these programs is to affiliate with Real Estate One as a Real Estate One Associate office. Our franchising division has been helping brokers realize their potential through name recognition while allowing them to maintain local control.

Real Estate One is the largest company in Michigan and the nation's 15th largest real estate service company. We are dedicated to providing our franchisees with the latest in tools and resources necessary for today's market while sharing the benefit of our research and market knowledge. Real Estate One continues to grow in strength and recognition across the state with the addition of each affiliate office.

Our Vision
How often do you hear about "ground floor" opportunities? There's a certain excitement associated with being involved at the beginning of a new business. When it comes to considering a real estate franchise system, however, "ground floor" isn't exactly where you want to be. After all, purchasing a real estate franchise represents an investment in the track record of the company you affiliate with, so experience is one of the most important elements in your decision making process.

Real Estate One's roots go back more than 75 years. During that time Real Estate One has prospered while enduring every conceivable market condition. Innovations in management, education, and marketing have made Real Estate One a model for the industry.

For more than 30 years, Real Estate One has offered its business experience, trademarks, and services to a select group of independently owned Associate companies. Our franchise fee is based on the size of your community; so, let us know if you're ready to grow with us.

Franchising as a Startup Business
If you're an agent looking for a way to expand your career in real estate, you should consider a Real Estate One franchise. In an era of radidly changing technology, and escalating costs associated with recruiting and training, it's important to plan your entry into business carefully. A Real Estate One franchise permits you to be in business for yourself, but not by yourself.

Franchising Your Existing Office
Owning and operating a real estate company places you in a highly competitive business environment. If you occasionally feel you're losing ground, a Real Estate One franchise may be the way to "jump start" your existing office. Our experience indicates that franchising has an immediate positive effect on agent recruiting and listings.
