Nicholas Humphreys Estate Agent

Join the UK’S Number 1 Specialist Student Letting Franchise!

A Nicholas Humphreys franchise includes five franchises for the price of one: specialist student lettings, professional lettings, property management and investment & residential sales. We are a dynamic and reputable company that differs from the current traditional letting agents by bringing a new style and fresh approach to fully explore the lucrative student letting business.

The brand is innovative with a large investment in marketing to fully develop the Specialist Student Letting side of our franchising, which achieves on average 2.5 times the income than that of typical Professional lettings.

We provide the complete start-up package for your franchise including a bespoke four-week training programme. The initial fee also includes an unrivalled in-field launch and support via our dedicated team of industry professionals for an additional eight-week period, all of whom are proven in launching new businesses, allowing you to work alongside the very best in the sector, giving you the best possible start to the launch of your business.

How Are We Different?

All of the initial franchise fee is invested back into your business, there is no profit for Nicholas Humphreys as a franchisor. We invest all of the initial franchise fees into the pre-launch and launch of your franchise. This means we have to ensure that you have a successful and profitable business from the initial launch period through to your life with us as a franchisee.

Nicholas Humphreys has developed a bespoke Specialist Student Lettings brand and franchise proposition which differentiates us from other letting agents. Student Lettings can provide up to 2.5 times the fee income when compared to a typical Professional Letting Agency. Student properties are let in advance of the next academic year, creating a secured cash flow for your business allowing you to plan cash flow and future investment and recruitment.

Student-letting franchises have the advantage of being both very lucrative and quicker and easier to launch.

Training and Support

The four-week training programme is workshop, branch and field-based, being designed to appeal to all learning styles and delivered by company trainers and operational experts.

In addition, Nicholas Humphreys will provide you with a fully trained member of the franchise team proven in launching successful franchises, for an eight-week launch period and for ongoing mentoring support.

They will guide you through the process, with a minimum of 20 days in-field support over an 8-week period, with additional remote support as required. Further information regarding our invaluable training and support is available on request including a training plan.
