HomeVestors® of America is a real estate franchise system deeply invested in the communities it serves. The brand’s steadfast values are represented by its mission statement: “To help others through innovative processes and real estate solutions that positively impact neighborhoods one home at a time.” As a network of franchises that makes up the largest and longest-running home buying franchise in the U.S., HomeVestors offers entrepreneurs a rewarding opportunity to build wealth while helping others.
“We are what we say we are. We help people first and buy houses second,” explained Senior Manager of Franchise Development April Nealey.
After almost 11 years working with HomeVestors, Nealey remains passionate about the company’s commitment to “helping people use their largest asset to their benefit and create affordable housing for a new family.”
According to Nealey, HomeVestors’ candidates must have traits that set them apart from others. “We want somebody who is a true entrepreneur, who has a strong desire to serve others,” she said. “They need to be good problem solvers. Often our sellers have run into some measure of challenge in life and they need someone to stand beside them and help them navigate. It’s not always pretty, but it is always worth it.”
In addition to providing franchisees with a mentorship program and access to seasoned market experts, HomeVestors offers a high-impact marketing platform that generates quality seller direct leads, connections to third-party lenders that offer up to 100% financing for qualified franchisees, a customer relationship management system and other proprietary technology.
HomeVestors’ business model is built on a foundation of responsible business practices and high ethical standards. It boasts a talented network of owners with impressive sales, client service skills and a passion for helping customers through tough situations. One thing all franchisees have in common is an interest in achieving financial independence by building their own real estate business, and HomeVestors gives owners the tools to start that business in as few as 60 days.
“Franchisees cooperate with each other, share resources and even buy houses from each other from time to time,” said Nealey. “Our franchisees act as mentors to one another, sharing vendors and advice.”
