A LETTINGS AND ESTATE AGENCY FRANCHISE WITH NORTHWOOD
3 Easy Steps To Success
Northwood: Scott Wilding, Northwood
I decided to invest in a franchise after the failure of my small computer business. The computer market became stagnant and my profits dwindled. I enjoyed running a business and liked being my own boss so I turned to franchising as a means to continue as I had previously, but with the guaranteed job security and stability a branded image would provide. Property franchising interested me as my father's career was in the property market. He owns multiple properties and together we decided a lettings or estate agency franchise would be the best investment for me.

Northwood: Franchisee Diary: Stuart Calvert, Southampton
For five years I worked for Northwood as a negotiator and as an office manager and I really got to know the business inside out. Then, in 2006 a Northwood franchise came up for sale in my hometown of Southampton. I saw this as a great opportunity - I knew how good the Northwood concept was and knew the benefits of the business, so I decided to invest in the franchise myself.
