Realty ONE Group offers a comprehensive suite of training programs to support the successful operation of its franchises. These programs are designed to ensure that franchisees and their key personnel are well-versed in the company’s systems, operations, and service standards. Below are the primary training programs provided:
Initial Training Program Realty ONE Group provides mandatory initial training and orientation for the Office Manager and at least one equity owner of the franchise. This training covers the company's operational procedures, marketing, customer service techniques, and system standards. Completion of this program is a prerequisite for opening the franchise and gaining access to operational software.
Post-Opening Training and Support After the franchise opens, Realty ONE Group continues to offer telephone and email support, periodic field representative visits, and access to its headquarters for consultation. This assistance helps franchisees manage daily operations and align with brand standards.
Ongoing and Optional Training Programs Franchisees may be required to attend periodic training courses, seminars, conferences, or programs deemed relevant by the franchisor. These include events such as the BaseCamp Leadership Summits and the annual ONE Summit. Additionally, Realty ONE Group may offer optional coaching and mentoring programs for a fee.
Territory Protection
Realty ONE Group does not grant exclusive territorial rights to its franchisees. Each franchise is established at a specific approved location, and the franchisor defines a “Primary Marketing Area,” which can be a standard or low-density marketing area.
However, the franchisee may still face competition from other Realty ONE franchisees, company-owned outlets, or alternative distribution channels, even within that designated marketing area.
Furthermore, Realty ONE Group retains the right to develop and license other real estate brokerage businesses, even if they are adjacent to or within close proximity to an existing franchise.
