The senior population in the United States is vast and growing, with all baby boomers reaching retirement age (65 and up) by 2030. The second-largest age group in the U.S. provides savvy entrepreneurs with unique opportunities to cater to the needs of this vibrant population.

Renovation Sells Combines the Two Emerging Industries of Renovation and Real Estate to Create a Uniquely Positioned Franchise Opportunity

As Baby Boomer home sellers look for cost-effective updates to make their listings appeal to the needs of incoming Millennial homebuyers, Renovation Sells saw a 20% increase in year-over-year sales.

Renovation Sells, the Chicago-based renovation franchise that makes pre-sale renovations to bring homes ready for market, saw a 20% increase in year-over-year sales in 2020.

This growth is largely because, over the past year, the pandemic created historically low mortgage rates and the ability to work from home, at the same time that the real estate industry saw Millennial homebuyers flooding the market. Even prior to the pandemic, Millennials—America’s largest generation—were starting to reach home buying age.

Now, these factors have resulted in the highest home sales since 2006, with no signs of slowing down.

While this is great news for sellers, there is just one problem: many of the homes for sale don’t appeal to those younger buyers. Lu…
