Franchising details
What is Century 21?Century 21 is one of the largest residential estate agency franchises on the planet. It has amassed a network of more than 10,000 offices spanning 84 countries. This innovative franchise has also introduced two new franchise packages to reflect the changing world of real estate and property, so there are even more ways to get involved with Century 21.
What does the Century 21 package look like?Century 21 has shaken up its franchise model after recognising the demand for more flexible work solutions. Now, there are three options if you’re looking to invest in Century 21.
- Century 21 Solo – You can become a self-employed estate agent operating under the Century21 brand remotely. You’ll run your business from home, avoiding set-up fees and ongoing overheads. Whenever you need support, Century 21’s back office support team will be there to answer your questions.
- Century 21 Flex – If you’re looking for a more flexible business option, this model could be ideal. You’ll have business premises located off the high street so you can welcome customers face-to-face, but you’ll also have plenty of budget to invest in other marketing and expansion avenues.
- Century 21 Max – You could establish a strong presence on your local high street with the Century21 Max model. You’ll set up your estate agency branch in a premium location and enjoy plenty of footfall from potential customers every day.
