Ed's rent to rent journey shows what is possible with persistence, strategy and the right mindset. He struggled to land his first deal, then went on to build a multi million pound property business with over 70 deals. Today he uses his rent to rent cashflow to fund BRRR projects entirely debt free. He shares the lessons that helped him scale, including a game changing BRRR deal, how he overcame self doubt, and the role mentorship and community played. If you are serious about rent to rent, this is a story you will not want to miss.

Marina works full time as a contract manager, and her partner Kate already had some buy to lets. They wanted quicker cashflow than buy to let gives, so they looked at different property courses and chose Simon. Rent to rent clicked instantly: it didn't need much money up front, so they could do several deals with what they had. Marina booked a call and joined that same evening. Her only worry was that it was Kate's money, but hearing the success stories on the calls convinced her: if others can do it, so can we. Within a couple of months of really getting going, they had signed three deals, two in Coventry and one in Leamington Spa. Now landlords are coming to them, including a landlord's sister and even their decorator, and Kate has handed in her notice. Marina's advice: "Follow the process and trust the process, it will work."

Paul Sargent is proof that consistency wins in rent to rent. Since joining Simon, he has grown steadily year on year, building a streamlined serviced accommodation business that now manages 42 units. He reflects on the moves that fuelled his growth: building strong relationships, focusing on systems and staying the course when others gave up. Whether you are starting out or looking to scale, this is a masterclass in playing the long game.

Alisha's first rent to rent deal is a newly renovated three bed, one and a half bath terrace in Manchester, now stylish serviced accommodation. She shares how she found the property, the design choices she made, and how she targets the right guests, from construction workers to groups visiting the Etihad and the Co-op Live arena. She also gives her tips on negotiating, managing bookings and growing her portfolio.
