I currently run properties in Coventry, Nottingham, Bradford, Bath, and London. The framework for assessing whether a new location supports profitable serviced accommodation is covered in Lessons 3 and 5. If the area has real demand drivers (corporate travel, hospitals, universities, or tourism appeal), the model works. The Goldmine Area Matrix™ inside the playbook lets you check any area in under 5 minutes.

Yes, when set up correctly. The legal structure is a company let agreement where the landlord grants permission for short-term subletting in writing. Lesson 4 walks through the exact protective clauses your contract needs, including subletting permission, maintenance responsibility, and break clauses. You get the template I use across my own portfolio.

Approximately £4,000 to £5,500 all-in for a first 2-bedroom unit. That covers first month's rent, furnishing to hotel standard, compliance setup, and insurance. Lesson 2 breaks down every single number. It's not £40,000. It's not £100,000. And at typical net profit margins, the full investment returns in 5 to 6 months.

Every mentee I've named was employed when they started. Djay had a full-time job. Mo had a full-time job. Lesson 6 is built around the five-hour week. The four automations and the team structure are specifically designed for someone running this alongside a job, not someone with 40 hours a week spare. I manage 30+ properties remotely. You can manage one alongside your day job.

This is the £29 playbook, the seven-lesson system you can go through this week. The six-month Host Collective one-to-one mentorship is separate. Inside the mentorship you get weekly live calls with me, joint landlord call demonstrations, contract reviews, and 24/7 WhatsApp access to me and my business partner Freeman. The playbook gives you the framework. The mentorship gives you me, beside you, while you execute it.
