Florida has been one of Home- Vestors’ best markets
Monday, June 4th, 2007Joseph Peri is hunting for homely houses in Orange County.
As a new franchise owner in Winter Garden for HomeVestors of America, Peri is ready to buy properties that need some work. HomeVestors is the company known for its “We Buy Ugly Houses” signs — a phrase it has trademarked, though the homes are not always ugly and other companies sometimes rip off the slogan.
Florida has been one of Home- Vestors’ best markets, with 42 franchises, second only to the company’s home state of Texas. And there’s no shortage of houses for sale — a virtual smorgasbord.
