Comparison between a Letting Agency Franchise and the Anthony and Co business package

Until recently, the most popular starting point for anyone wishing to become a letting agent would be to buy into a lettings franchise.

The typical franchise costs between 15k and 35k together with royalty fees payable of between 8p and 12p of every pound that you earn for your letting business. This cost already eliminates the majority of people who may wish to set up a letting agency, being totally out of budget.

We cannot deny that buying a letting agency franchise is a well proven business model and has worked very well for a number of people over many years; however in recent years, people have shifted quickly to searching for properties online, and this is now the most popular way by far in which people search for their future home. This therefore reduces the benefit of buying a letting agency franchise.

As a result, online letting agents are becoming more and more popular, because the letting agent can easily meet a prospective landlord or tenant at the property to let, email applications and arrange for online payments for deposits and rents.

This has created a massive lettings opportunity for anyone wishing to set up a letting agency independently at low cost and low risk. The letting agency start up business package is a proven concept.

Thanks to the internet, all letting agents can now trade equally, offering a landlord just as much in terms of property exposure, where the more determined and pro-active agent will win.

Although setting up a letting agency online would be the more practical approach to the modern day franchisee starting with a zero property portfolio, the larger franchisors still insist that they trade from high street offices before allowing access to an available territory.

They do this to firstly justify their high franchise fee and secondly to ensure you are paying them the highest possible royalty fee, not wasting opportunities and driving for as much business as possible in order to cover the larger expenses that come when trading from an office etc.
