The brand, which was founded in 1996 by real estate entrepreneur Ken D’Angelo, specializes in buying distressed properties, including houses in need of repairs or properties facing financial difficulties. Since its inception more than 25 years ago, HomeVestors has purchased more than 140K properties.<h2>How Many HomeVestors Locations Are There?</h2>As of August 2023, there are roughly 1,100 HomeVestors independently owned-and-operated franchise locations across 46 states and Washington D.C.<h2>What Is HomeVestors’ Business Model?</h2>HomeVestors’ business model revolves around purchasing distressed properties quickly for cash, allowing homeowners to sell their homes without the need to handle repairs or renovations on their own.

As full franchise owners, franchisees are granted access to marketing rights in their territory, tools and mentorship, and “jump right into steering their businesses at the helm full-time.” The brand notes that full franchisees will often open a physical office location and a staff.<ul><li>Associate Franchise</li></ul>The brand’s associate franchise opportunity is for individuals who want less upfront costs to start their business and don’t intend on making it their full-time job. Associate franchise owners will also still have access to marketing rights as well as tools and mentorship. As they typically work part-time, they may not require a staff or physical location.<h2>How Much Can HomeVestors Franchise Owners Make?</h2>HomeVestors&nbsp;does not have a publicly available Item 19.
