Neighborly has today announced the expansion of its brands and services to the New York Metro area. The group of home service franchise brands has identified approximately 150 territories in which it is actively seeking to open new franchise businesses with 10 of the organization’s trusted brands.
“The recession-resilient nature we’ve seen within the last year from the home services sector has led to increased investment interest in franchises that specialize in services ranging from painting to plumbing and everything in between, and excellence in this space is what Neighborly’s 40-year legacy is built on,” said Brad Stevenson, chief development officer of Neighborly.
“Today’s homeowners are relying more than ever on professionals for maintenance and enhancements of their homes. Given the large population of suburban, single-family homes in the New York metro counties where we’ve identified development opportunities, Neighborly is eager to partner with aspiring business owners looking to deliver Neighborly’s essential services from across our roster of brands to these communities.”
The following brands are searching for both single-unit and multi-unit owners:
- The Grounds Guys, with more than 15 territories available for development
- Mr. Electric, with more than 15 territories available for development
- Window Genie, with more than 15 territories available for development
- Molly Maid, with more than 10 territories available for development
- Aire Serv, with more than 10 territories available for development
- Real Property Management, with more than 10 territories available for development
- Dryer Vent Wizard, with more than five territories available for development
- Five Star Painting, with more than five territories available for development

Suffolk, Westchester and Rockland, New York and Bergen, New Jersey have been identified as the most promising counties since they comprise roughly 40 of the total territories available.
“As we continue pursuing our vision to Own The Home through Neighborly’s family of home service brands, our franchise owners can expect more and more cross-marketing opportunities from one Neighborly brand to the next,” said Stevenson.
“In the New York metro market which is ripe with homeowners in need of the professional services we are known for, we look forward to teaming up with driven franchise owners with whom we can work to spread the positive impact of Neighborly’s values-driven business practices.”
