The real estate industry continues to be a robust and vibrant business opportunity. The strength of the market and interest in property ownership and investment has rarely been higher. Even in less robust times good agencies manage to operate very profitable businesses in this industry.

Most businesses that fail do so in their infancy. One of the underlying causes for this is the owner, who is usually skilled in their area of expertise (e.g. selling), but is not necessarily skilled in operating a business.

The Jens Gaunt franchise understands the need for a business to hit the ground running, and to have the business considerations in place. The first few months are critical in making an impact in the market and establishing a reputation, this is also the time when many of the systems for operating the business need to be set up.

Jens Gaunt takes the view that a franchise is more than a set of instructions and a marketing look. We work with the franchisee at every level to secure the future of their business, particularly at the critical start-up phase of the business. We will assist with finding suitable premises, establishing business plans, finding and managing the right staff and marketing plans designed to make an immediate impact. We work with franchisees to implement the quality system which is built in to the real estate management software package.

Jens Gaunt recognizes that people and the businesses they operate are not all the same. We work very closely with our franchisees to compliment their expertise and build on areas where they are less experienced. As a team we are able to meet all the needs of the new business, and going forward the franchisee is gaining experience in every aspect of their business.

We meet with all franchisees individually and as a group regularly, to discuss all aspects of the business in general and specific franchisee needs. With the growth of the network across different markets we have an enormous opportunity to continuously improve and maintain an edge on our competitors.

We have an aggressive expansion plan, and are keen to talk to the right people about the exciting opportunity of opening the next Jens Gaunt market leading office.
