For 2025, Alex and Pooh are taking a fresh approach to the podcast. It is now called the Airbnb Blueprint podcast and will become much more of a training podcast. Whether you are just getting started in the industry or are already in the game and are looking to scale, grow, systemise, automate and build a more remote business you will find everything you need to know, here. 

For this episode, the focus is on providing you with an overview of the current UK Airbnb market and the realities of doing business in this environment.

KEY TAKEAWAYS

In today´s more regulated and crowded market you need to be able to adapt what you offer.
Diversification is key. Putting all of your eggs in one basket and only renting out properties is no longer a wise strategy.
Having one or two rental units and hoping for the best doesn´t work anymore.
The Airbnb market is flooded so you need to be creative to get people to click on your link and book with you.
There are no shortcuts, if you do not know your stuff and set things up properly, you will be weeded out.
You need training from someone who is active in the market. Someone you resonate with. 
The right, fully up to date, training and mentoring will save you a fortune and enable you to grow fast.
As your business progresses, your mentor needs to teach you more advanced skills and strategies. Unfortunately, very few mentors in the Airbnb space offer this level of support and advice.

BEST MOMENTS

“The Airbnb Blueprint journey is about … unlocking that door to as many other people as we can.”
“This is about the truth, nothing but the truth. No bulls**t, no fluff.”
“Be a little bit more creative and make sure that you're building multiple streams of income around serviced accommodation.”
“There's a lot of things that are missing from the current training space.”

In this episode, Alex talks about something that catches a lot of SA owners out – head leases on flats, in particular those that are located in large blocks. Alex explains why they are often an issue and some of the other risks attached to using flats located in large blocks as serviced accommodation. He also explains, in detail, how to avoid and manage these potential risks

KEY TAKEAWAYS

• Flats can still offer a good return on your investment, but they are a lot more complicated to run.
• Head leases trip a lot of SA owners up. You need to understand them and what the legal implications are.
• Often, head leases contain clauses that mean you cannot legally use them as part of your SA business.
• Flats in large blocks also come with potential issues relating to noise, neighbour disputes and navigating management company rules that could ultimately lead to fines and/or eviction.
• Getting too many noise complaints can lead to your getting kicked out of the block.
• Noise issues can end up becoming a council matter, which can affect your relationship with them and therefore impact the other properties you own in the area.
• Have notices up in the property to remind guests that they are in a block of apartments and that they need to be respectful.
• Be very clear about where guests can and cannot park.
• Check and fully comply with the management company rules. If you breach the rules you can lose your lease and be evicted.

 

 

BEST MOMENTS

 

“If you were living in a block of flats, would you really want an Airbnb unit literally within spitting distance of your front door? ”

“If you're taking a deal from sourcers, you need to see that head lease and get a solicitor to look at that head lease as well.”

“If you don't do that, you can risk legal action from the freeholder which could include termination of the lease and being evicted from the property.”

“Many hosts mistakenly believe that once they sign the lease, they can just do whatever they want with the property, but the reality is quite different.”

“Keeping your neighbours on side is a fundamental part of a successful serviced accommodation business.”

“Maintain open communication with your neighbours and address issues as soon as they arise. ”

“It only takes once or twice for people to park in a neighbor’s spot to get their back up.”

During this episode, Alex talks about a topic that has caused a lot of headaches for property investors and serviced accommodation hosts -  unscrupulous deal sourcers. He explains how people get scammed by deal sourcers selling  SA rent-to-rent deals that are too expensive, for properties that are not suitable for use as serviced accommodation or are of such poor quality that guests will not want to stay there.

Alex explains exactly how to avoid falling into this trap. Taking you through vetting the sourcer, assessing the property, working through the numbers to make sure it will be profitable, ensuring you are not paying above the market rate and more.

KEY TAKEAWAYS

• Getting out there yourself and speaking to agents and landlords is still the best way to find legitimate deals that work for you and your business.

• A legitimate deal sourcer who has good connections in the area you are interested in can use their network to find you the right deal. But not all of them have your best interests at heart.

• If you do plan to use a deal sourcer learn to differentiate a good deal from a bad one.

• Deal sourcers should be transparent. If you have questions about the area, council regs, average rent or occupation rates they should be able to answer them.

• If you want to know the sources of the data they share they should willingly show you.

• Walk away if they use pressure tactics.

• The exact costs involved in the deal should be laid out in writing.

• If something sounds too good to be true, it usually is. Always pause and break the numbers down yourself.

• Fully understand the costs involved in running the property e.g. maintenance and laundry.

• Look at what is happening to the area in the long-term, e.g. are zoning changes looming, is a road due to be built through the property?

• If it is in a block of flats or another community-controlled development double check SA is allowed and other restrictions.

BEST MOMENTS

“A  sourcer is someone who locates and arranges property deals for investors.”

“The property industry, unfortunately, is littered with horror stories of investors who have ended up stuck in bad deals ”

“A good sourcer should be completely transparent about the details of any property they present to you.”

“Make sure that you're not paying above-market rent.”

“Get independent property valuations.”

In this episode of the Airbnb Nomads toolbox, Alex talks about whether or not you should buy your furniture outright or finance it. This is not just choosing between two different ways to pay. Which option you choose is going to have a significant impact on cash flow and the profit you will make in the long term. 

Which decision is best for you depends on what is going on in your business at that particular point in time. Alex talks you through the pros and cons of both approaches and explains how to weigh them up to choose the best option.

KEY TAKEAWAYS

• Furnishing an Airbnb property is not cheap, especially if you are buying for a 4- or 5-bedroom property. Even furnishing a one-bedroom flat will cost £5k+.

• Which approach is best very much depends on where your business is at the time. Starting with whether you have money available in the bank.

• How you finance your property has operational as well as financial implications.

• When you buy your furniture outright you are 100% in control.

• There are long-term benefits when you own your furniture outright which Alex shares during the episode.

• Even if you buy a furnished property you will usually have to replace that furniture to make the accommodation attractive enough to tempt guests to book it.

• Financing can allow you to use high-end furniture that you would otherwise not be able to afford. If this allows you to charge more rent it could make a big difference to your profit margins.

• When you use financing you end up paying far more than if you had bought it outright.

• If you fail to make payments on time you can end up negatively impacting your credit rating.

BEST MOMENTS

“If flexibility and maintaining a healthy cash flow and more important to you right now, financing could be the better option.”

“For some properties where we plan to stay super long term, in great areas that we know are going to do well, we buy the furniture outright.”

“People aren't going to look after that furniture like they do their own stuff. Okay? So, yes, you're going to have to replace stuff, and that means more money out in the future”

“The decision should align with your overall business plan and long-term vision, your budget and your long-term goals.”

DESCRIPTION
For this episode, Alex is joined by Nicole Bremner - investor, author, public speaker, and founder of a social enterprise making financial advice accessible and affordable for all. With 125 deals under her belt, Nicole shares not only her successes but also her setbacks.

Nicole covers forming fair partnerships, navigating market shifts, raising funds through crowdfunding, rebuilding confidence after setbacks and using purpose to push you to overcome any obstacle. The way she does this reveals some rarely shared nuggets of information that you can use to fuel your success.

KEY TAKEAWAYS

• Building a strong personal brand is a powerful way to attract and connect with the people you need to get things done.
• When doing a deal with a partner, be careful about the balance of power. The person who holds the accounts can make the books say whatever they want them to.
• If your JV partner has the construction company, the partnership is not a fair one.
  Property investment should never be your sole investment. It is only one pillar.
• Be clear on your strategy, take things slowly and invest in your area.

BEST MOMENTS

“If people are looking to do property right now, I would say, take a really slow and steady approach ”
“Whoever's holding onto the accounts always wins.”
“I actually couldn't even ask a question in the room.…. I'd lost so much confidence ”
“For every person that pays, we then give financial advice to someone who can't pay.”

In this episode of the Airbnb toolbox, Alex looks at the crucial subject of making sure that your UK Airbnb business complies fully with fire regulations. Something that is far from just a legal requirement. When you follow the regulations you end up keeping your guests safer and reduce the risk of your property being damaged. 

Alex provides you with an overview of how to stay fire-risk compliant. He also explains where you can get in-depth information to ensure that you meet those requirements in full.

KEY TAKEAWAYS

• As professional hosts it is essential to protect our guests, our properties, our business, our reputation and the financial well-being of our families.

• The consequences of not complying with fire regulations can be catastrophic.

• Read the regulations. They now apply to all properties that accommodate guests, regardless of how often guests stay or the size of the property.

• Ensure you use the correct set of regulations. They vary between countries e.g. Scotland´s are stricter.

• You have to comply with both the national and the fire risk regulations set by your local council. Often there will be extra things you need to do.

• The regulations also apply to C1 model accommodation.

• Now, smoke alarms, detectors, marking escape routes, emergency lighting and more is required.

• Non- compliance can mean your insurance is voided, leaving you liable to pay damages for injuries or deaths.

• Before buying or leasing a property assess the cost of making it fire-risk compliant.

• Check any cladding.

• Test everything at least once a month and document the fact it has been done.

BEST MOMENTS

“They're (the fire regulations are) about ensuring, literally, the safety of your guests and your property. ”

“According to the updated rules, fire risk assessments are now mandatory for all properties that are used to accommodate guests.”

“The level of detail that's required and the responsibility that's placed on landlords and hosts has significantly increased.”

“if you fail to comply with the new fire safety regs, you could face massive fines and criminal charges, in extreme cases.”

“Prioritize fire safety in your initial assessment, when you're stacking the deal. ”

“Conduct regular fire drills.”

“That's where a lot of people go wrong. They might do the checks, but they're not documenting the stuff.”

For this episode of the Airbnb Nomads toolbox, Alex explains how to maximise your booking occupancy levels and profits by using Pricelabs to help you manage your Airbnb calendar effectively. Too many SA owners take short bookings too far out, which often leads to them missing out on potential long bookings or are not upping their rates during high-demand periods e.g. local events.

The step-by-step walkthrough of PriceLabs settings and advice Alex shares in this episode are vitally important for all serviced accommodation landlords. It will help you to keep your property full with the type of guests that make you the most profit.

KEY TAKEAWAYS

• Most hosts are currently not optimising their Airbnb booking calendars effectively, so are leaving money on the table.

• You should not be simply setting a rate, walking away and allowing every single customer to book at that rate, regardless of demand or whether events are taking place in your area.

• If you allow people to book just 2 nights months in advance when someone else wants a 4-week-long booking during that same period you miss out on big profits. You only get paid for 2 nights instead of 28.

• Using dynamic pricing software like PriceLabs enables you to control minimum stay lengths.

• When set up properly PriceLabs will put your prices up at historically busy times of the year and do so on autopilot.

• To get the most out of software like PriceLabs you have to understand your customer avatar e.g. how far out they are likely to book.

• Closing your calendar after 90+ days out reduces the chances of a customer cancelling on you.

BEST MOMENTS

“This is really important, and to be quite honest, I was quite shocked to find out just how many people on optimizing their calendars. ”

“The goal is the same. It's to fill your calendar with the right booking so not only keep your property occupied but most importantly, they also bring in the most profit ”

“We found a balance between filling our calendar with both short and long stays, while also prioritizing much longer bookings.”

“You can customize your settings based on your own guest avatar.”

“The great thing about Price Labs is that it's so flexible. There are so many things you can do.”
