In todays episode Alex breaks down one of the biggest shifts happening in the serviced accommodation space right now — the mass exodus of hosts leaving the rent-to-rent game.
But while many see burnout and closures, Alex explains why this “fallout” is actually a golden opportunity. The demand for accommodation hasn’t gone away — it’s simply shifted. Contractors, relocation teams, social housing providers, and families in transition are all still searching for places to stay.
The real winners in this new era? Connectors — people who match struggling hosts and landlords with clients who need housing.

KEY TAKEAWAYS
- Hosts across the UK are quietly exiting the market, leaving properties and opportunities behind.
- The demand hasn’t disappeared — it’s shifted from tourists to contractors, relocations, and organizations.
- You don’t need to own or lease property to profit; you need to connect supply with demand.
- Building relationships (not listings) is the real currency in 2025.
- Position yourself as a problem-solver, not another host, and you’ll create long-term revenue streams.
- Catching the fallout means stepping in where others quit and turning it into opportunity.
BEST MOMENTS
“Most hosts didn’t fail because they were lazy. They failed because the game changed and they didn’t change with it.”
“The money in short-term accommodation was never really in the property. It was in the placement.”
“You don’t need to own anything. If you know hosts and you know clients, you can build a business as the connector.”
“Relationships are the new currency — with hosts, landlords, and clients. That’s where the opportunities live.”

HOST BIOS
Alex & Pooh have built a portfolio of over 16 Serviced Accommodation Units and 10 Buy-To-Lets collectively over the last 5 years.
This Airbnb business has allowed each of them to create their own tailor-made ‘lifestyle by design.’
Pooh chose to escape the corporate life as an electrical engineer instead to spend his time at home with his young and growing family, and Alex likes to spend most of his time in sunny Spain enjoying his love for road cycling or hiking in the Tramuntana mountain ranges.
