What made this deal work
Fully hands-off setup — the investor provided capital, Easy Invest sourced the landlord and property, Eason Stays took over the live operation.
Landlord agreed a rent that left genuine spread — £1,350/month gave enough margin once SA operating costs (cleaning, utilities, platform fees, management) were in place.
Premium finish and professional photography meant the listing could command a higher nightly rate from day one, shortening the payback window.
The unit remains live and operational — every additional month compounds the net return above the 31.8% already banked.
