How Two Friends Turned One Airbnb House Into a Five-Figure Business
Two friends, disillusioned with their 9-5 jobs, began an Airbnb business three years ago. Starting with a single property, they now manage two, earning five-figure salaries each month. Their success story is a testament to the growing trend of side hustles in the UK.
The duo, who remain unnamed, began their entrepreneurial journey by decorating and listing their first property on Airbnb. Within six months, they were able to quit their full-time jobs, a feat achieved by only a fraction of the estimated 22.8 million Brits using side hustles to supplement their income. Today, they manage two houses and have even bought a Mercedes Benz to celebrate their success.
To manage their houses remotely, they've implemented automated systems for locks, messaging, and cleaners. This allows them to maintain their business even when they're not physically present. Their corporate lease allows for short-term leasing, further expanding their business model. Their TikTok account, @propertywithdeana, has amassed over 3 million views, showcasing their houses and offering insights into their business.
The pair's journey from corporate employees to successful Airbnb entrepreneurs highlights the potential of side hustles in the UK. Despite being less popular among older generations, side hustles are becoming increasingly common among younger Brits, with 68 percent of those aged 18-23 having one. As the duo continues to grow their business, they serve as an inspiration for others looking to turn their side hustles into full-time success stories.
