Meet Herman from Maidstone, Kent—joined by his wife Lisa on a focused mission to build long-term income through rent-to-rent. With just six viewings under their belt, they landed their very first deal: a four-bedroom HMO in Abbeywood. Now, with a six-bed semi-detached house already in the pipeline, this couple is wasting no time scaling their portfolio. In this video, Herman shares how they kept things simple, stayed consistent, and took the right action early. If you’re new to rent-to-rent and wondering what’s possible in your first few weeks—this is the kind of story that shows exactly what can happen when you go all in together.

This is Mentee of the Month Alaa—and her journey is nothing short of transformational. After 8 months with zero deals, she joined the programme and within just 6 months secured her first 3 properties, generating £1,400 per month in passive income. Fast forward just 4 months later, and Alaa has added a fourth deal to her portfolio—one that cost just £2,000 to set up and is now set to return that same figure every single month. Her total passive income has now reached £4,000/month—and she’s only just warming up. Alaa’s latest deal required just a £2,000 setup and is projected to generate £2,000/month in pure profit—making it her most efficient rent-to-rent yet. With four properties now producing £4,000/month total, she’s built serious momentum and continues to scale smart and fast.

In this video, he shares the strategies that helped him get started, his approach to finding and securing properties, and the mindset that keeps him moving forward. If you're looking for real-world inspiration to start your own property journey, this is a great place to begin.

From struggling to find landlords to securing a direct deal with a property developer, Nakita’s journey into rent-to-rent shows what’s possible with persistence, smart strategy, and the right support.

She reveals how the deal with a developer came about, what it took to set up each unit for success, and why guest experience and presentation have been crucial to her results. Nakita also talks openly about the challenges she faced, and how being part of the SSO mentorship gave her the tools and confidence to push through and build something she’s proud of.
