Meet the Grant family—Claudia, Curtis, and Gary—who are turning their rent-to-rent journey into a powerful family mission. Speaking at the #R2Rsuperconf, they shared how, with the right education, they secured their very first deal within just one month. Their first property, a two-bed flat in Shepherd’s Bush sourced through OpenRent, taught them the real-world lessons that only come from taking action. But it wasn’t just strategy that got them there—it was teamwork. By working together and playing to each other’s strengths, they built authentic relationships with landlords and laid the foundation for long-term success. For the Grants, rent-to-rent isn’t just a side hustle. It’s about building a legacy, creating generational wealth, and showing that when a family moves with purpose, anything is possible.
