  • Building A Rent-To-Rent Business And Leaving Their Jobs, Jaydee & Paul Tell Their Story
    Jan 22 2026

    Send us a text

    One decision changed everything for JD and Paul of PJK Properties: stop chasing every tactic and go all-in on one. We dive into how they chose rent-to-rent HMOs, built airtight systems, and partnered with Manchester and Salford councils to house people who need safe, stable homes. The result? A portfolio that cash flows, a mission they’re proud of, and the confidence to say no to bad deals.

    We unpack the first months when nothing seemed to stick, how they leaned on training, templates, and community coaching to get contracts right, and the moment a single deal unlocked momentum. You’ll hear the exact objections they face with landlords, why they don’t pay deposits, and how switching to rent in arrears transformed their cash flow. They share the house they gave back—and how that decision sharpened their standards. We also talk about the power of referrals, credibility checks, and why property is a people business long before it’s a spreadsheet.

    There’s a deeper layer here: aligning profit with purpose. Their social housing model supports tenants coming from probation or domestic violence, with support workers and council partners in the loop. That mission fuels persistence, builds trust with landlords, and creates steady demand. As they look ahead, rent-to-rent remains the cash-flow engine while they refinance existing assets and move into ownership for long-term equity.

    If you’re overwhelmed by strategies, this conversation shows why focus beats FOMO, systems beat hustle, and relationships beat cold outreach. Hit play, take notes, and decide what you’ll commit to for the next 12 months. If this helped you, subscribe, share with a friend, and leave a quick review—it makes a real difference.

  • The Renters Right Act, Explained
    Dec 11 2025

    Send us a text

    The Renters’ Rights Act is here, and the rulebook for landlords and tenants is changing fast. We brought in Alice and Anthony McMullen of Homemaker Properties to translate the legal shifts into practical steps you can take today—and a timeline you can actually plan around.

    We start with what lands first: new council investigatory powers this December and the end of Section 21 by May 1, 2026. Possession doesn’t vanish, it moves to Section 8—with specific grounds for selling or moving back in, tougher notice periods, and a higher bar for evidence. We dig into how to document conversations, serve notices you can prove, and avoid courtroom surprises. Then we unpack the big structural shift: all tenancies become periodic in 2026. That means flexible exits for tenants, and more methodical processes for landlords who want stability. Student lets and HMOs are a special case; Article 4 areas, seasonal gaps, and planning constraints demand sharper strategy, from joint and several agreements to mixing professionals with students to reduce voids.

    Money and mechanics get a reboot too. Annual rent increases must run through Section 13 with defined notice periods. Advance rent requirements are curbed, while guarantors and insurance‑backed options step in for international or credit‑thin applicants. Discrimination against families and benefits claimants is out; affordability criteria, fairly applied, keep you compliant. Pet requests shift to case‑by‑case judgment, with property suitability and impact on other occupants as key tests. On enforcement, fines rise and rent repayment orders stretch to 24 months. From late 2026, the landlord database arrives, with safety certificates, property details, and public access to enforcement history—nudging the market toward transparency and professional standards.

    We also look ahead: a private‑sector Decent Homes Standard, updated HHSRS rules, damp and mold timeframes, and the likely EPC C requirement by 2030. The path is clear even if dates slide. Our take: tighten your systems, audit compliance, price fairly with evidence, and communicate clearly. If management admin is eating your week, consider professional help; your time has value. If your portfolio leans heavily on marginal HMOs, model family lets in strong locations where tenants stay longer and voids shrink. Want the immediate p

  • Turn Your Properties Into Supported Living & Make It A Win/Win
    Dec 4 2025

    Send us a text

    Predictable income beats perfect projections, especially when the rules of renting keep shifting. We open up about why we’ve leaned into supported living and social housing partnerships, and how landlords are securing steady, often market-level rents with far less day-to-day management. If you’ve felt the stress of patchy bookings or tenant turnover, this is a practical roadmap to swap volatility for clarity while doing work that matters.

    We break down the mechanics of fully repairing and insuring (FRI) leases, where vetted providers take on maintenance and insurance responsibilities, often handling adaptations for residents with disabilities and returning properties to standard at lease end. You’ll hear how bungalows, family homes, and even blocks of flats can slot into supported living schemes across the UK, and why transparency with lenders and insurers is the non-negotiable foundation for long-term success.

    No properties yet? We outline a back-to-back leasing approach that mirrors rent-to-rent while aligning with charities and care providers. By disclosing use, structuring compliant contracts, and matching the right assets to local demand, operators can create a sustainable margin without managing nightly stays. We also share how developers and portfolio landlords can phase units into supported living as tenancies expire, turning uncertainty into multi-year agreements.

    Beyond the numbers, there’s real impact: safe homes for people leaving tough situations, pathways to independence for residents with additional needs, and a business model that rewards consistency and care. Want to explore whether your property fits or how to start as an operator.
