Anne and Jeff are now full time property investors. Until recently, Anne was a supply chain analyst for a pharmaceutical company and Jeff ran a business building and designing pipe organs, which he still does on the side. Working with Simon, they have secured five rent to rent deals, and property is now their main focus. They talk about what it was like having Simon on the call for their first deal, and how that support was pivotal.

How Anne and Jeff replaced their jobs with rent to rent

Working with Simon is a practical, real life experience. When we worked together on our first deal, him stepping in on the call, making sure we were asking the right questions, it was like being hand held, and that was pivotal. Simon, because he's in the rent to rent business, knows what to avoid. He helps you see what value you can offer and how to communicate that effectively.

Sonya works in sales and was used to making money for somebody else. With three young children at home, she wanted more control, more income and more time with her family. Property stood out, and rent to rent was the most accessible route because it did not need a property purchase or large amounts of capital up front. Sonya and her husband Jamie joined SSO, followed the process and built their rent to rent business in Birmingham. They now have six properties and keep growing, with the goal of leaving corporate life and making different choices for their family.
