Testimonials
“I had always dreamt of running my own business within the property industry, but had never really come across an opportunity that was right for me or within a budget affordable to me. When I discovered the franchise opportunity offered by Open House I jumped at the chance to work from home within the area I know and love. The training was first class and I soon learnt how to conduct a property valuation, which was my main area of concern before joining the network.”
Alison Molloy, Open House Portishead
“Having many years estate and letting agency experience, I was looking to start my own property venture when I came across Open House Estate Agents. To be part of a national network, with full marketing and business support, it made perfect sense to join this franchise…. not to mention that fact that it would have cost me about £25k more to start up by myself and an awful lot more work!”
Luke Creasey, Warrington Central
“Estate agency is new to me and the team at Open House have been absolutely brilliant in showing me the ropes. The franchise package training, support and systems are all excellent and I couldn’t have asked for anything more from this opportunity.”
Emma Baker, Coventry South

Join the Open House Personal Estate Agent network
Start your own lucrative home-based estate agency – sales & lettings
Open House estate agents are offering a unique and exciting franchise opportunity for entrepreneurs looking to start their own estate agency business.
With ambitious plans to capitalise on the changing estate agency business model at a grass roots level, Open House are looking to expand its current estate agency network throughout England and Wales via a skilled team of franchised personal local estate agents.
Operating in exclusive geographical areas, based from home or a small office; Open House is looking for individuals with the drive and entrepreneurial flair to build a profitable and sustainable business, with massively reduced overheads.
For a minimal investment, this full ‘turn key’ package provides successful applicants with a comprehensive training programme (including an industry recognised qualification) and structured business support systems, to enable franchisees to offer a full estate agency and tenant finder service.
You, your future, your business
As an independent owner and operator you will have the freedom to run and develop your own business – plus the help, support, buying power and shared learning that comes with being part of a nationwide franchised network.
Let us take the worry out of your business, so you can concentrate on looking after your clients and selling or letting their properties! This results in a better bottom line for you, with an OTE of £50,000 pre-tax profit in year 1.
The future of estate agency
The way that people are searching for property is changing, with over 80% of successful home buyers and tenants using the internet to search for property. Combine this with those who spotted their next home through local press advertising or by a ‘for sale’ board in front of the property; then this figure rises to a lot closer to 100%. This means that the traditional estate agency model needs to change, but not at the cost of a quality personal service.
Offering a revolutionary new concept in estate agency, as one of our personal agents, you’ll be able to deliver a fully personalised estate and letting agency service at a fraction of the cost of most high street agencies - by reducing unnecessary overheads, such as expensive high street stores, and sharing common services.
This new model has been identified by many experts as the ‘future of estate agency’ in this country, including the property media, the OFT, and estate agents themselves – with two thirds of agents believing that a high street presence will no longer be required by 2015 or sooner.
As an Open House Personal Agent you will be able to combine the best of what a traditional agent offers with the latest cutting edge technology of an online agent.
This is not internet selling; this is the future – local online estate agency
