Karolina Orzeł - Franchising as an entry strategy into the real estate market

Currently, the competitive environment of the real estate market favors the development of market entry barriers for new entrants. These obstacles can be overcome through franchising, in which by buying the license we get strong brand, business procedures and access to customers. Consolidation of the real estate market in Poland can lead within next 10 years to the situation in which only local players and agencies operating in the network remain on the market. The study shows what franchise systems are now present on the Polish real estate market and enumerates the benefits of joining the network in this sector.

It tackles the issue of psychological aspects of speculative behavior. It is worth asking the question, whether speculation is a cause or a symptom of real estate cycle? Is the thesis about significant impact of supply condition on both the process and magnitude of price fluctuactions justified? Deliberations will be based on influence of elasticity of supply in connection with the speculative factor and its influence on the process of the price changes.
