Jeanie & Stuart Mann

Jide and Leonie secured their very first serviced accommodation deal well ahead of schedule. They share how focused action helped them land a standout property fast, and give you a tour of their brand new four bed detached house in Dartford, an exciting milestone at the start of their property journey.

Nakita struggled to find landlords at first. Then she secured a direct deal with a property developer. She shares how she built her Short Stays business in London and grew to three high performing serviced accommodation units, how the developer deal came about, and why guest experience and presentation have been key to her results. She also talks openly about the challenges and how SSO mentorship gave her the tools and confidence to build something she is proud of.

Sonya works in sales and was used to making money for somebody else. With three young children at home, she wanted more control, more income and more time with her family. Property stood out, and rent to rent was the most accessible route because it did not need a property purchase or large amounts of capital up front. Sonya and her husband Jamie joined SSO, followed the process and built their rent to rent business in Birmingham. They now have six properties and keep growing, with the goal of leaving corporate life and making different choices for their family.

Sharon's story began with over 18 months of follow up with a vendor before she finally secured the deal. Her portfolio is three well located two bed flats in Worcester, all sourced directly. She shares how she furnished them on a budget, added smart home tech to control utility costs, and landed an impressive 189 night booking across all three flats. A great example of how patience and preparation pay off in rent to rent.
