Kate & James

Karen spent years working 13-hour days in dentistry, raising two sons alone, with nothing to show for it but stress, fatigue, and rental properties that barely broke even. Health issues forced her to face reality—she couldn’t keep going like this. But everything changed when her son introduced her to rent-to-rent and she joined SSO. She converted her underperforming buy-to-lets into serviced accommodation and saw £13,000 turnover in her first month. Since then, she’s launched three rent-to-rent deals in Cheltenham, secured another property in Cornwall, and now earns over £20,000 a month in profit. With the support, accountability and straight-talking advice she says was missing from every other programme, Karen is finally building something real—for herself, for her family, and for the life she nearly thought she’d missed

Meet the Grant family—Claudia, Curtis, and Gary—who are turning their rent-to-rent journey into a powerful family mission. Speaking at the #R2Rsuperconf, they shared how, with the right education, they secured their very first deal within just one month. Their first property, a two-bed flat in Shepherd’s Bush sourced through OpenRent, taught them the real-world lessons that only come from taking action. But it wasn’t just strategy that got them there—it was teamwork. By working together and playing to each other’s strengths, they built authentic relationships with landlords and laid the foundation for long-term success. For the Grants, rent-to-rent isn’t just a side hustle. It’s about building a legacy, creating generational wealth, and showing that when a family moves with purpose, anything is possible.
