AxisPointe HomeWorx franchises are gaining momentum nationwide, as 11 franchises have been sold in 11 cities (four states) over the past four months.
HomeWorx franchises provide an opportunity to take advantage of outsourcing within the building industry.
HomeWorx offers builders the ability to: scale up or down depending on the market without having to hire; fire or train employees; focus on core business and not have the hassle with the day-to-day post-construction services; ensure consistent services to homebuyers; outsource the entire post-construction warranty process to an experienced vendor.
Individuals can start their own franchise with as little as a cell phone and laptop and have it up and running in a few weeks.
"The current climate in the building industry creates an ideal business opportunity for people to utilize their skills and knowledge to grow their own franchise," says Frank Tate, AxisPointe VP, Franchise Division.
"Working with a proven company such as AxisPointe provides peace of mind in our unstable economy and has been an attractive selling point to many of our new franchisees."
The states franchises were sold in include: Colorado (Denver, Fort Collins, Colorado Springs), North Carolina (Durham, Chapel Hill, Raleigh), South Carolina (Greenville) and Texas (Dallas, Houston, Austin, San Antonio).
"I am impressed with the high-caliber of franchisees we have brought on board with HomeWorx," says AxisPointe CEO Andrew K. Smith.
"Their experience and drive to succeed not only helps our business succeed, it brings them personal and financial growth as well. The franchising model is a win-win for everyone."
The decrease in residential construction is resulting in homebuilders and multi-family developers outsourcing post-construction customer service to save overall operating costs.
"We look forward to having a HomeWorx office in each major metropolitan city throughout the United States to service this ongoing trend of outsourced post-construction customer and warranty service by 2010," Smith says.
