Welcome back to the Girls in Property Podcast! In this episode, your host Athena Dobson sits down with Ellen MacDonald — a former teacher turned thriving entrepreneur who’s carved out a successful path in the rent-to-serviced accommodation space - Think Air B n B & Booking.com. If you're listening in, chances are you’re curious about how to break into the rent-to-rent world yourself, or you have a few properties and are looking to scale.
Together, Athena and Ellen dive into the highs, lows, and everything in between — offering valuable insights for anyone considering making the leap. From setting realistic expectations and nurturing strong relationships to staying focused on the bigger picture, they unpack what it truly takes to grow in this fast-paced industry.
They also get real about the challenges: the trap of chasing shortcuts, why knowing your numbers is non-negotiable, and the common roadblocks when it comes to sourcing deals. Ellen shares her own behind-the-scenes stories with unfiltered honesty, reminding us that success often comes from the lessons learned along the way.
Tune in for a fun, candid, and motivating conversation that shines a light on what it really takes to start strong and stay the course in your property journey.
