What is a property franchise?
Property franchising is a type of business model that allows a franchisee to operate a sales and lettings business under an established brand name and business model. Being a franchise partner with Belvoir will allow you to operate under their name all the while running your own business from day to day. To become a franchisee under Belvoir, you will have to sign a franchise agreement, a legally binding document between a franchisee and chosen franchisor.

First steps
Before any big career choice, we recommend doing your research to ensure the decision you’re making is the correct one. Anyone can become a franchisee with Belvoir, but before you start you’ll require the correct funding to pay for the initial set-up and running costs. We provide information on the different financing options that can assist in raising the capital to set up your own property franchise.
Day to day life as a franchisee
One of the biggest benefits to becoming a property franchisee is the freedom to choose when you work. Working under the Belvoir brand gives you the independence you’ve always wanted, while removing the hassle of starting your own brand from scratch. Day to day activities for a franchisee include researching new properties, scheduling meetings and viewings, communicating with customers as well as taking time to advertise your business venture.
