stablished in 1974 and franchising since the early 80s, Country Properties is a highly respected brand in estate agency. Recognised as a symbol of


professionalism and high quality, it offers the opportunity for franchisees to operate as entrepreneurs, with the freedom to run their own business while reaping the huge benefits a powerful franchise can supply. As a Country Properties franchisee


you will enjoy the comfort of being under the watchful eye of its successful and experienced team. You will also benefit from the support and comradeship of its existing franchisees. Previous experience


in estate agency can help but it is by no means a requirement – basically franchisees provide the energy and


Country Properties provides the ‘know- how’ and tools. In fact about half of its current franchisees joined from other industries. Franchisee Terry McCloud, who


originally had a small plumbing business, says: “I bought my first Country Properties franchise more than 20 years ago and at the time had no experience in estate agency. Without the support of the franchisor I doubt if I would have survived the recession in the early 90s. In subsequent years I have been allowed the freedom and encouragement to expand my business. Without question, the brand, the network, the expertise and enthusiasm of head office, together with all the support, knowledge, marketing and statistical back-up will allow any individual to feel they are supported and operating in a more stable environment within our challenging, but rewarding industry.” n
