Resale Overview

Operating for just under 10 years, this established franchise has built an impressive culture, empowering the team to run the business and ensuring the delivery of high-quality care for their clients. As a result, retention of Care Professionals and office staff is strong. 

The business has a focus on community involvement, positioning them as the experts in care for the local area, and improving their word of mouth referrals. 

The demographics of the area are strong, with over 40,000 over 65s in the territory, and the key town of the area being mostly older people. 

Whilst the foundations are strong for this business, there are many ways that a new owner can drive growth and make a great return on their investment.

Is this business right for you?

Funding a resale

When buying a resale franchise there will already be a viable business in place so you will be able to see the potential rewards before you purchase. The sale price of a franchise office will vary from territory to territory depending on a range of factors, so you will need to ensure you can fund a purchase. Home Instead can assist you regarding funding by utilising our close relationship with banks who understand the franchise sector, as well as supporting you after the resale is complete.
