Mark’s Story

After working for more than 16 years in the corporate world as an upper-level executive, Mark Harris was ready for a career change. “I wanted to do my own thing and was ready for the next chapter,” he said. Mark came across HouseMaster® franchise opportunities when researching his next career move. He liked the built-in support system and decided to self-fund his investment. Mark quickly found himself inspecting the homes of pro athletes for the Dallas Cowboys, Dallas Stars, Dallas Mavericks, and Texas Rangers.

Mark is appreciative of the help he received while learning the business and now gives back to other franchise owners. “That’s an everyday thing,” Mark says. “If I take care of others, eventually, good things will happen for me and this business.”
