What does success look like?
Success means many different things to different people.
Be it simply being your own boss, flexibility, lifestyle, fulfilling a personal ambition, being in charge of your own destiny or the desire to earn unlimited amounts of money rather than being paid a fixed salary, a Martin & Co franchise can offer you all of this!
We pride ourselves in transforming property virgins into property professionals who via their new found knowledge and business can generate highly successful and lucrative futures for themselves and their families. Most Martin & Co franchise owners do not have previous letting experience, however some were landlords themselves prior to purchasing a franchise. Many of our franchise owners have developed their own portfolio of rented properties with the expertise they have acquired in the franchise.
When you buy a Martin & Co franchise you not only buy yourself the ability to generate an unlimited income but you buy the opportunity to generate a large asset value that can be realised on the sale of the business.
Will you succeed with us?
Every franchisee who joins us is vetted to ensure they will be committed to maintaining the very highest standards of service and professionalism. We cannot compromise the values upon which the business has been founded. The brand and reputation is everything. It's hard to earn and easy to lose! Our comprehensive on-going training and support ensures franchisees and their staff are able to deliver cutting edge service.
There is no perfect profile for our franchise owners. You are encouraged to do your homework as franchising is not right for everyone. The Martin & Co franchise application process provides a structured step-by-step approach for potential franchisees to assimilate a tremendous amount of information before reaching a decision. Anyone invited to join the brand will receive a specimen franchise agreement, a map of the proposed territory and a 5-year business plan tailored to the territory together with full, unfettered access to all Martin & Co franchisees, before completing their due diligence enquiries.
