We Buy Ugly Houses® Company Rises to Number
20 on Annual Ranking
America’s number one home-buyer, HomeVestors, has once again
ranked on Entrepreneur Magazine’s annual Fastest-Growing Franchises
list, rising to number 20. HomeVestors is the largest professional
home buying network of independently owned and operated franchisees
in America, adding 231 franchisees in 2017 alone.
Entrepreneur’s highly competitive annual fastest-growth list is
culled from Entrepreneur’s Franchise 500®. The list’s rankings are
based on the number of new franchise units added in the United
States and Canada from July 2016 to July 2017, as verified by the
magazine.
“The last year has been a real testament to how successful our
model is,” said David Hicks, CEO of HomeVestors. “In the midst of
this incredible growth, one of our franchisees purchased the
company’s 85,000th house since we began franchising in 1996. Ours
is the original professional home buying franchise, and we’re
honored to be recognized for our continued success that reflects
both the new life we are bringing to neighborhoods across the
country, and the new opportunities each of these individuals has
realized in becoming a HomeVestors® franchisee.”
Independently owned and operated HomeVestors franchises operate
in 152 markets across America to purchase and improve approximately
8,000 houses each year. HomeVestors can be seen in the Entrepreneur
Fastest-Growing Franchises list currently on newsstands, as well as
