In this episode of the Girls in Property podcast, Athena Dobson sits down with the “Property Athlete” Daniel Budden — a former athlete who left the sports world behind to build a thriving business in serviced accommodation. Daniel opens up about his journey into property, sharing how he made the leap, secured his first SA deal, and shaped a winning money mindset along the way.
They dive into the rent-to-rent strategy as a smart starting point for new investors, and why relationships with letting agents and sharp negotiation skills are key. Daniel also shares tips on using Facebook ads to find leads — perfect for anyone balancing property with a full-time job — and explains the importance of having solid contracts in place.
The conversation also touches on the highs and lows of running a serviced accommodation business, from dealing with market saturation to the power of professional presentation. With plenty of practical advice, Daniel highlights how mindset, community, and constant learning make all the difference.
Whether you're just getting started or looking to level up, this episode is packed with energy, insight, and encouragement to help you grow your serviced accommodation journey with confidence.
