HouseMaster Franchise Opportunities
About Us
Since 1971, HouseMaster has provided a variety of home inspection services as a nationally recognized industry leader. HouseMaster franchise owners serve customers in more than 260 locations across North America. When it comes to starting a home inspection business, franchise owners looking to be their own boss have the support and resources to pursue their dream of business ownership in a growing industry.
HouseMaster is proud to be a part of Neighborly, the world’s largest home services franchise with 19 brands and more than 5,000 locations focused on repairing, maintaining, and enhancing properties. Utilizing decades of experience and scale through the Neighborly Hub, this multi-brand portfolio provides our franchise owners with distinct advantages like improved networking opportunities and customer referrals between brands in the same local market, ultimately creating value for franchise owners and customers alike.
The Neighborly Done Right Promise™ is a core component of putting customer service first by taking the stress out of home maintenance, having pride in the work that gets done, and promising to make things right. Additionally, the culture across the entire family of brands is embodied by the Neighborly Code of Values, which emphasizes the importance of fostering a set of ideals that guide the organization. These elements, while small to some, set Neighborly and HouseMaster franchise owners apart from the competition.
Why Franchise With Us?
No Industry Experience Required: By utilizing an executive ownership model where you make the decisions and manage your own business, you have the choice to start up on your own or build a team.
Highly Scalable Model: With a relatively low initial investment and high service demand, the long-term revenue potential is substantial. 20% of franchise owners have been with HouseMaster for over 20 years, and a significant number are multi-unit owners.
Prime Territories: With available territories in some of the fastest-growing markets, there’s ample space and demand to establish your franchise. Better yet, thanks to designated territories, you’ll be able to collaborate and share best practices with other HouseMaster locations instead of compete for the same customers.
ProTradeNet® Buying Power: Exclusively available to Neighborly brand franchise owners, you’ll have access to discounts and rebates from over 250 preferred vendors, such as Lowe's and The Home Depot. In 2023, Neighborly brand franchise owners who joined PTN collectively received over $8.7 million in rebates and $98 million in up-front savings.
Award-Winning Recognition: With more than 50 years of success, HouseMaster has been recognized by leading organizations within the franchising space, such as Entrepreneur Franchise 500®, Franchise Business Review Top 200, and Franchise Times Top 400®.
