The Full English: The United Kingdom's Airbnb, Short Term Rental & Property Investment Show

Episode 5: Mark Scott. The National Parks such as the Lake District are great, but Mark's business revolves around properties which are just 1 hour from London. Perfect for short stays.


Listen Later

This is my conversation with Mark Scott. Mark has gone from Bollywood producer to family man and airbnb professional host.

Mark owns and manages around 30 properties which are mostly in and around Suffolk. The key to the success of his properties is, I think, three fold:

Firstly they are all have a similar rustic charm to them. If you visit one of Marks cottages you know what you are getting, and his guests keep on coming back.

Secondly, they are all within just over an hour from London. This makes them perfect for a short get away, and as a result they busy all year round.

Thirdly, the landlords he works with personally stay in their properties for a part of the year. Meaning that pure yield maximisation is not their only goal. This means that Mark can bring amazing cottages to market for great value, which is win-win-win for the guests, landlords and Mark.

As always on the show, we get some unique insight from Mark. He's a great guy, this is a great conversation. I hope you enjoy it.
