“We could spend the next 20-30 years perfecting systems to help us run efficiently and lose all the profits by making mistakes along the way – or, we could go ahead and purchase a system that we could begin implementing right away. We just realized it made more sense to not reinvent the wheel.

Why Houston Is One of the Strongest Markets for a Remodeling Franchise
Houston is the fourth largest city in the country. And it’s one of the rare metros that actually kept growing through recessions. Around 100,000 people move there every year.
With that kind of growth, a lot of the housing stock is getting up there in age, which means kitchens and bathrooms that were built out decades ago are now well overdue for a real update.
Katy, Sugar Land, The Woodlands, Cypress, Pearland — these aren’t just growing, they’re among the fastest-growing communities in the entire state. And the people moving into these neighborhoods aren’t renting. They own their homes, they invest in them, and when it’s time to remodel, they’re not looking for the cheapest option.
That’s exactly who a DreamMaker franchise is built for.
And here’s something worth noting about remodeling versus other popular franchise categories. You’re not dependent on foot traffic or a busy retail corridor. You’re built on reputation. In suburbs like these, where neighbors actually talk to each other, one great project turns into three referrals. That kind of market is hard to beat.
DreamMaker is actively looking for new remodeling franchise owners in other metro cities in Texas including Austin, San Antonio, Fort Worth, Dallas, Corpus Christi, Plano, and Round Rock.

The Houston Remodeling Market: Why the Numbers Make Sense
Homeowners aren’t moving, they’re remodeling. And with so much of the Houston’s housing stock getting older, that’s not a passing trend. It’s just the reality of where things are headed.

Frequently Asked Questions
Houston is the fourth largest city in the U.S. and adds roughly 100,000 residents per year. A large portion of its housing stock is now 30 to 40 years
old — exactly when kitchens and bathrooms need serious updates. High-income suburbs like Katy, Sugar Land, and The Woodlands add even more demand.
Few markets in the country combine that kind of volume with that level of purchasing power.
To qualify for a DreamMaker franchise in Houston you'll need a minimum of $200,000 in liquid capital and a net worth of at least $450,000. If you're a
Veteran or First Responder, DreamMaker offers a 20% discount on the initial franchise fee as a thank you for your service. The total initial investment range is outlined in full in our Franchise Disclosure Document
— available when you connect with our team.

side of the business. What matters more than
technical experience is the ability to lead a
small team, build relationships in your community,
and follow a proven process. If you have those
qualities, the remodeling knowledge comes with
the training.
