Apps, software and gadgets that will save you time and money.  Whether you have just started your Airbnb business or already have a large portfolio the information in this episode will prove invaluable. Paul covers tech to help you to better manage security, guest behaviour, relationships with neighbours and more. KEY TAKEAWAYS The right smart thermostat will pay for itself in under a year. Alex recommends a specific make and model in the episode. Being able to use your phone to set when the heating goes on and off means you are never left heating an empty property. The right tech enables you to schedule tasks, so everything happens automatically e.g. make sure that the property is at the right temperature when guests arrive. Security matters. The right Ring style doorbell system is invaluable. Video doorbells can help you to spot guests who are breaking the house rules, e.g. booking for 3 people but having 6 people staying. Noise monitors are a discrete, legal, non-intrusive way to monitor noise levels, so you know if a party is going on. Smart lights help keep bills lower, improve security and provide your guest with the luxury of voice-controlled lights. The jury is still out on smart locks, but they are really worth investigating. Factor in the cost of subscriptions when deciding which devices to use. BEST MOMENTS “Trust me, once you've got these things into your property…you're not going to look back ” “This (smart thermostat) is going to save you so much money over the year that it will pay for itself in a matter of weeks.” “It gives your guests the option to stay warm if they have a day off work and are in the property, but it doesn't give them the option to go out and leave the heating on.” “It listens for the noise levels in the property, and if it raises above what you've set, it will send you an alert.” “We can send those codes out to our guests, and it eliminates the need for physical keys.” EPISODE RESOURCES Inspire thermostat for SA - https://www.inspirehomeautomation.co.uk/all_thermostat_versions.php Some UK video doorbell systems to look into - https://www.goodhousekeeping.com/uk/product-reviews/tech/g40556687/best-video-doorbells/ Noise monitor - https://www.minut.com Smart Bulbs - https://www.philips-hue.com/en-us/products/smart-light-bulbs Smart Locks - https://www.asurion.com/connect/tech-tips/smart-lock-buying-guide HOST BIOS Alex & Pooh have built a portfolio of over 16 Serviced Accommodation Units and 10 Buy-To-Lets collectively over the last 5 years.

BEST MOMENTS “6 weeks later … we had added about £40 grand worth of equity from a £10 grand investment. ”“Where there's turbulent times, there's always an opportunity in property.” GUEST BIO Emma has built a successful property-flipping business in her hometown of Barnsley, South Yorkshire. After renovating her own properties in 2019 & 2020 and starting with just £20,000, Emma quickly got the property bug and decided a year later to leave her corporate career behind her to pursue creating luxury high-spec family homes in her local area.  To date, Emma has flipped 12 properties with another three in the current pipeline and has raised over £2million from angel investors. Emma's second year of trading amounted to a turnover of over £1 million with a net profit of six figures.  In December last year, Emma was crowned Young Property Investor of the Year 2023.

To turn your side hustle into a business that enables you to give up your day job. KEY TAKEAWAYS Start by mastering the management of your first property. If you don´t have your first property running smoothly, running more will be too much and you will fail. Put in place good systems that provide a flawless guest experience and keeps the property in perfect condition. Streamline your processes before you scale. Remove yourself from as many day-to-day tasks as possible e.g. cleaning or taking bookings. Use software and apps to automate as much as possible. Focus on building your network. Your network is not just agents. Cleaners, maintenance teams and other hosts can also be good sources of leads and partners. Treat your suppliers and team like gold, they are the ones that deliver the excellence that makes your business shine. Master cashflow. Short-term and long-term financial planning is crucial. Use the management model to start working with people who own properties that need attention. Later, they may rent to you. Work on the business not in the business. Invest in education for you and your team. BEST MOMENTS “Scaling isn´t about working harder. It´s about working smarter.” “The 1st deal is always the hardest one…to scale you need to make sure you have a solid foundation in place.” “That first property, that is your blueprint. This is where you're cutting your teeth making sure that you're getting everything right.” “You've got to have repeatable systems in place that allow you to handle multiple properties without burning out.” “Trust is crucial to your success.” “In the UK, we've got this massive rental crisis. But it's not impossible.” – (finding more properties to rent and use for Airbandb) EPISODE RESOURCES How to secure that first R2R Airbnb deal direct to landlord episode - https://podcasts.apple.com/gb/podcast/how-to-secure-that-first-r2r-airbnb-deal-direct-to-landlord/id1725492164?i=1000675986688 Software that will make managing your property easier – https://www.tokeet.com/?ref=ztfjzgj https://rategenie.io https://hello.pricelabs.co https://turno.com https://stripe.com https://www.tidy.com HOST BIOS Alex & Pooh have built a portfolio of over 16 Serviced Accommodation Units and 10 Buy-To-Lets collectively over the last 5 years.

Deal packaging works.There is huge demand for HMO rooms especially at the luxury end of the market.It is now possible to use individual electricity meters for each room, which helps to control HMO power bills.

He shares where to find them, how to reach them and how to cut through the noise to get their attention. Alex provides you with a checklist of benefits you can use to seal the deal.   KEY TAKEAWAYS Focus at least 80% of your time on finding landlords and doing deals directly with them. Doing direct landlord deals gets you past some of the hurdles you cannot get past when dealing with agents, e.g. references for which the bar is usually incredibly high. Make sure that the landlord knows exactly what you are going to be using the property for. Most landlords worry about the negative impact your guests could have on neighbours. Be clear about how you stop this from being an issue. Offer long-term deals, 3-year contracts appeal to most landlords. Pay the landlord every month whether you have guests or not. Make it clear that you will maintain their property like a show home. Be clear about which aspects of maintenance you cover. Build trust, let them know that when you do not have guests they can meet you at the property to check things are OK.   BEST MOMENTS "When you're dealing directly with landlords, you are removing 90% of the hurdles that are put in place by letting agents and the biggest one being referencing." "Everybody needs to know the benefits that you can bring to them over running their properties as buy to let." " You are not covered under the Housing Act, so you can't mess around like you can do on a residential AST contract." “I'm going to be giving you back a property that is in a better condition than when I took it on,”   HOST BIOS Alex & Pooh have built a portfolio of over 16 Serviced Accommodation Units and 10 Buy-To-Lets collectively over the last 5 years.

The Real Truth Around Securing Airbnb Deals Through Agents

Link: https://www.tokeet.com/?ref=ztfjzgj THE AIRBNB CONSULTANT - CONTACT US  https://calendly.com/airbnbconsultant/15min  For this AirBnB Toolbox episode, Alex talks about something many property entrepreneurs struggle with – speaking to letting agents. He explains what you should be saying and what you definitely should not. The advice he shares is especially important for someone who is planning to get started using the now-challenging rent-to-rent model. But the tips he shares will also prove helpful for anyone who is trying to persuade a letting agent to do business with them. KEY TAKEAWAYS If you are going to get started using rent-to-rent, start by doing a deal with a private landlord. Friends and family friends already trust and know you, so start with them. Tell people you meet and in your social circle about what you do, they may be landlords who are fed up and would prefer to rent to you. Focus on the direct-to-vendor market, speak to those that have buy-to-let portfolios. Don´t be intimidated by letting agents. Provided you have taken the right courses, you already know more about property than they do. But be respectful. Agents are familiar with AST contracts, but will rarely know much about company lets, so for them, doing a deal with you means taking a chance. Referencing is a big hurdle for those who are new to rent to rent. Alex explains how to get through that. Target the one-man-band agents. They are a lot more willing to do creative deals. Spend time building rapport and long-term relationships. Remember agents make a lot of money from taking care of the maintenance, so your maintaining the property is not a selling point. Work on your communication skills. BEST MOMENTS "This golden key to building your serviced accommodation business is these darn letting agents that are standing in the way, holding all the stock." "Trying to sell these benefits to an agent is way harder than trying to sell it to somebody who already knows you, likes you." "You've got to think about where we are in the UK, with the economy as it is we've got a rental crisis going on." "Earn to have a conversation without reading off a script sheet." "You´ve got to get out of your office …. Put on some decent clothes and go to the agent."

Alex explains how to identify your purpose, why you are here and what brings you joy and fulfilment, then quickly make the necessary changes to pursue that life. The good news is that it is easier than you think and literally anyone can do it. KEY TAKEAWAYS The traditional script is work hard for decades, save for retirement and then, if you are lucky, enjoy a few years of freedom. Following the traditional script simply does not make most people happy. Usually, it leads to an unfulfilling life full of drudgery. You have the power to change that. You don´t have to trade your time for money, you can create a business that does not require you to be physically present to make the cash you need to pay your bills. Once you have more free time living the life you want and fulfilling your purpose becomes far easier. Running a business that aligns with your true values is very liberating.  Visualise the life you want. Then, take action to get it. Alex and Pooh´s course is designed to ensure that you take the right action. BEST MOMENTS "You can reclaim your time, discover your purpose, and start living a life filled with joy, adventure and true fulfilment." "What is your life´s purpose, and why are you here?" "Stop settling for mediocrity and start striving for greatness, one life, one chance." “By leveraging technology, you can create a business that works for you, not the other way around.” “Live life on your own terms and still achieve financial success while doing what you love.” EPISODE RESOURCES Unscripted - https://www.amazon.co.uk/Unscripted-Life-Liberty-Pursuit-Entrepreneurship/dp/B0711VG44Y HOST BIOS Alex & Pooh have built a portfolio of over 16 Serviced Accommodation Units and 10 Buy-To-Lets collectively over the last 5 years.
