Meet Elliot

Elliot, founder

From the Amazon van to 30+ units.

I started out in corporate finance in the City. Good job on paper. Then I got fired.

To pay the bills I drove an Amazon delivery van. Between drops I'd pull over and call landlords and letting agents from the side of the road. I was turned down again and again, and it took me nearly a whole year of trial and error to land my first deal.

In 2021 I eventually took on my first serviced accommodation property, and that's when everything changed.

Today I run 30+ units across the UK and own none of them. I've managed over 50 since I started and helped dozens of people build their own Airbnb businesses. I manage properties all over the UK, and some of my most recent ones are in Edinburgh, Barrow-in-Furness and Scarborough. I've never visited any of them. They all run remotely.

The micro mentorship gives you two weeks of the exact system I use, so you can see it for yourself before you commit to anything bigger.

The problem

Most people never get their first property.

Not because the model doesn't work. Because they get stuck in the same three places.

PROBLEM 01

The wrong area.

They pick a property because it looks nice or it's close to home, not because guests actually need to stay there. Then it sits empty while the rent goes out.

PROBLEM 02

They can't run the numbers.

Nightly rate, occupancy, rent, bills, cleaning, platform fees. Without knowing what a property will really make, they either freeze or sign a deal that loses money every month.

PROBLEM 03

The landlord says no.

"I'm just looking for a family. I'm not renting it out to any companies." Most beginners hear that and give up. Without the right response, the deal dies on the call.

Every one of these has a framework.

The Host Collective™ Method

Four pillars. One live property.

Worked through in order, with a named framework at every stage where people usually get stuck. It's the same method I use in my own business, and inside the micro mentorship you get all of it.

PILLAR 01

Find and secure the deal

From not knowing where to look to a signed agreement with a landlord.

The Deal Engine™The Goldmine Area Matrix™ picks the location, then the Profit Predictor™ shows whether a property makes money before you commit.
One Simple Value Pitch™Approach landlords and agents as a professional company that solves their problems, not someone asking permission.
Credibility Leverage™Your answer to "how many properties do you manage?", borrowing credibility until you've built your own.
Landlord Confidence Converter™Turns a hesitant landlord into a confident one.

PILLAR 02

Set up and launch

From keys in hand to your first booking, fast. Every empty week is rent paid for nothing.

Furnish and stageAppeal to families, contractors and business travellers without the budget running away.
Professional photosNon-negotiable. They're the biggest single factor in whether someone books.
Airbnb and Booking.comThe right title, description, amenities and pricing to rank near the top.
Bills and insuranceSet up in the business name, with the right cover before the first guest arrives.

PILLAR 03

Hands-Off Hosting™

How properties run day to day without you being there, even hundreds of miles away.

The Revenue Maximiser™Dynamic pricing that moves with demand, so every night is priced to earn the most.
UpsellsExtra revenue on top of every booking, from early check-in and late check-out to damage waivers.
The Parent & Child Listing Method™My own listing method for attracting longer-term bookings.
The 5-Star Automation Sequence™Automated guest messages, self check-in with ID and deposit checks, and a process that earns strong reviews.
Your local teamA reliable cleaning team, a handyman on call and one system to keep it all in one place.

PILLAR 04

Scale

Turn a side project into a business by adding properties without adding workload.

Same systems, every propertyEach new unit follows the same team, automations and standards.
Standard operating proceduresWritten step-by-step processes, so anyone on your team can run a property to the same standard.
Direct booking contactsBuild a network of contacts who book with you direct, securing longer-term stays without relying on the platforms.
Build your teamBring in help, like a VA for guest messages, as the portfolio grows.
Go where the deals areYou're not tied to your local area, so you can expand wherever the numbers work.

One to one with Elliot, for both rent-to-rent and Airbnb management

Members only · The Goldmine Area Matrix™

The checklist behind every area I pick.

Before I look at a single property, every area goes through four checks. It's how I run properties in cities I've never visited. It's not on this page. You get the full matrix on day one of the micro mentorship.

Two routes in

Two ways in. Zero properties bought.

The same four pillars apply to both. What changes is who holds the property and how the money flows.

	ROUTE 01Rent-to-rent	ROUTE 02Airbnb management
How it works	You rent the property from the landlord on a company let agreement and run it yourself.	You manage the landlord's property for them and take a fee.
What you earn	The profit after rent, bills and running costs.	A percentage of revenue, typically around 15%.
Upfront money	Several thousand pounds per property for setup and furnishing.	Far less: business setup and ad spend.
Finding landlords	Calling agents and landlords with the One Simple Value Pitch™.	Meta ads that bring landlords to you.
Best for	People with some capital who want a higher profit per property.	People with limited funds who want to start quickly.

The management route: landlords come to you.

STEP 01Ads

Meta ads on Facebook and Instagram reach landlords looking for Airbnb management or more rental income.

STEP 02Lead form

Interested landlords leave their details, so every lead has already put their hand up.

STEP 03The call

What their property could earn, how the management works and what the fee is.

STEP 04Signed

The landlord signs a management agreement and the property moves into set up and launch.

I help you set up the whole funnel, from the business page and ad account to the ads and the lead form, then show you how I handle the calls. Many people start with management because it needs far less capital, then add rent-to-rent once income is coming in.

Why ?

Most property courses make you pay first.

Thousands upfront, a login and a folder of videos. You only find out whether it's right for you after the money's gone.

My promise

If you don't do the work, you won't get the outcome.

I can't promise you'll have a property live in 14 days, and you should be wary of anyone who does.

What I can promise: you'll get exactly the same access as my 12-month members. I'll answer your messages. I'll look at your areas, your numbers and your landlord pitches personally.

If you put the work in, you'll finish the two weeks knowing exactly what to do next, and whether this business is for you.

FAQ

Questions, answered.

What exactly is the micro mentorship?

Two weeks of full access to the Host Collective™ mentorship: the same training, tools, unlimited 1:1 calls and WhatsApp access that my 12-month members get. It's designed so you can see exactly how it works before committing to anything bigger.

Do I really not need to own property?

Correct. With rent-to-rent you rent the property from a landlord on a company let agreement and run it yourself. With Airbnb management you run the landlord's property for them and take a fee. Neither needs a mortgage or a deposit on a house.

Is rent-to-rent legal?

Yes, when it's done properly: with the landlord's written consent, the right agreement and the right insurance in place. Doing it properly and compliantly is a core part of the training.

Will I have a property live in 14 days?

Possibly not, and that isn't the goal. The goal is that you finish the two weeks with your route chosen, your areas scored, real deals run through the numbers and conversations with landlords underway.

How much money will I need after the 14 days?

It depends on your route. Airbnb management needs far less: business setup and ad spend. Rent-to-rent needs several thousand pounds per property for setup and furnishing. We'll work out the right route for your budget on your onboarding call.

I work full-time. Do I have time for this?

The mentorship is built for people with a 9-to-5. Your 1:1 calls are booked around your schedule and WhatsApp means you're never stuck waiting. The more time you give it in the two weeks, the more you'll get out of it.

What happens after the 14 days?

Nothing happens automatically. It's a one-off payment with no subscription. On your final call, if it's a good fit for both of us, we'll talk about continuing in the 12-month mentorship. If not, you'll leave with a clear plan.

Why are spaces limited?

Because the calls are with me, one to one. I can only give that level of attention to a small number of people at a time.

Can I get a refund?

Because you get the full course materials in our Skool community straight away, refunds aren't available once you've been given access. If you're not sure the micro mentorship is right for you, book a call with me before you join.

Do you guarantee results?

No, and be careful of anyone who does. I give you the method, the tools and the support. Your results depend on the work you put in.

Your first property is closer than you think.
