Overview

Renovation Sells provides fast, cosmetic home updates that help real estate agents and sellers attract buyers and secure higher sales prices. The franchise specializes in non-structural improvements such as painting, lighting upgrades, and cabinet refinishing to create move-in-ready homes that appeal to today’s buyers.

Established in 2018 and franchised in 2021, Renovation Sells has quickly become the leading pre-sale home renovation franchise in the U.S., with 49 owners operating across 78 territories. Unlike traditional remodeling companies, Renovation Sells operates on a B2B model, working directly with real estate professionals rather than homeowners. This targeted approach differentiates the franchise and positions it as an essential partner in the real estate market.

As a franchise owner, you will oversee project management while subcontractors handle the renovation work. The franchise offers a low initial investment, no required employees, and a home-based business structure. Franchisees receive strong support in marketing, sales, and operational systems, making this an excellent opportunity for individuals with networking, leadership, and project management skills who want to capitalize on the demand for modernized homes.
