Connecting entrepreneurs and opportunities.
Franchising is at the heart of the RealNet family.
Let us help you leverage all your current strengths more effectively through the RealNet brand and franchise model, growing your existing client base and connecting you to a network of likeminded peers.

You are still the face of your business; building your local reputation as an expert with all the right connections. But RealNet infrastructure and resources will also be at your disposal, from front row access, to business strategy and marketing techniques, to rental management software, to a set of leading online tools.
WHY JOIN A FRANCHISE NETWORK?
Credibility
Enjoy the benefit of a tried-and-tested business model, supported by a recognised brand with both existing and prospective clients.

Always up to date
Get fresh industry data, updated corporate governance policies, and ongoing compliance changes from a central distribution point. Pertinent legal documents like Offers to Purchase are promptly updated to comply with evolving legal and industry standards.

Economies of scale
The larger the group, the more leverage the Franchisor has in negotiating better terms, rates, products, and services for its Franchisees.

Avoid the disconnect of independent business ownership

Additional income opportunities
Access to specialised or accredited-only opportunities and special projects, such as access to distressed property portfolios at the four major banks.
Mentoring
Training and coaching are of a higher standard, with practical insights and applications drawn from the knowledge and experience of an entire community.

Safety in numbers
Franchisees enjoy a risk-managed environ-ment with solutions regarding property sales and rentals, property management, and administrative challenges.

Proper systems
From referral systems to IT systems to rental management systems, a Franchisor provides tried-and-tested operational methodologies, marketing and media libraries and platforms, management software, and much, much more to Franchisees.

Cross-pollination
Franchisees share their knowledge and practical know-how with agents, creating a platform for cross-pollination of the best ideas in the industry (and a bit of friendly rivalry)
