CEO MONTHLY / ISSUE 2 2024 14 n HMO (House in Multiple Occupation) is a crucial element of the private rented market housing up to 3 million people in the UK. We all have to start somewhere as investors, and The HMO Platform brand is dedicated to helping individuals with their portfolio growth – offering professional services and education/training for the UK’s aspiring HMO investors and developers. Matt Baker says, “I run our trainings with support from other property professionals and successful investors to ensure our clients have the right people around them to succeed. The HMO Platform focuses on showing anyone – even a complete beginner to investing – how to create quality shared accommodation that makes healthy, sustainable profits. Whereas The Supported Living Platform focuses on training existing property investors and landlords how to break into the supported living sector and provide accommodation specifically suited and created for care and registered providers.” “If you explore residential property, regardless of your investing experience, HMOs get you the most out of each property whilst providing accommodation for more people – a win-win for the investor and the housing market. In terms of supported living, it is a growing sector which attracts a lot of funding, allowing the more experienced investors to get long lease terms. Nobody really teaches this strategy at the moment.” As CEO, Matt lives and breathes the three core values of Property Investor Solutions, which are all about building a community, inspiring creativity, and encouraging individuals to be the best that they can be. The business is devoted to its existing community and does everything it can to forge community connections through helping others. Matt elaborates, “We create properties shared by a number of people from 4 to 20 people living together and sharing spaces. Our goal is to create a community within those properties – what the industry calls “co-living”. Elevating Co-Living in the UK Sussex-based Property Investor Solutions is a highly regarded provider of training and professional services to support individuals wishing to learn more about investing in the UK property market.
