You will notice a recurring theme for HOT franchises in 2023. There are two categories you can expect to hear a lot about – Personal Services and Home Services.
Today we focus on Home Services. These include businesses that cater to mid to upper-income homeowners.
Why are these businesses BOOMING?
There are multiple macroeconomic factors creating long-term opportunities for home services.
-
The supply of residential real estate is limited.
-
The cost of home ownership continues to increase from tight supply and higher mortgage rates.
-
The remote and hybrid work environments, i.e., more people are working at home.
Bottom Line: People are continuing to fix up and stay put for the foreseeable future.
You may be thinking, “I don’t know anything about construction.” No problem: That kind of experience is NOT required. Owners hire employees or subcontractors to perform the work.
Many home service franchises offer the attractive Manage-The-Manager Business Model. A General Manager (GM) handles the daily operations. The role of the owner is executive management. There are opportunities to have home service franchises as “a side hustle.”
Required skills: People management, business acumen, team leadership
HOT HOME SERVICES: painting; outdoor lighting; flooring; handyman services; cosmetic renovation for quick real estate sales; and on and on…….
