A franchise is an established business model which is followed by someone else; basically, it’s an expansion of a business that’s already up and running. Typically, a franchisee will buy a licence from a franchisor (the business owner) who allows them to use their franchise name and work as part of their company. You’ll usually benefit from training and support from the franchisor to get you on your feet.  If you’re interested in an estate agent franchise opportunity with easyProperty, you’ll have your own area of postcodes to work in and will receive all the help you need (including tech and marketing).
