Sophie Foote, a true HMO girl, is the Director of ROOMS, a company that takes shared houses and provides quality rooms for tenants and long-term contracts, guaranteed rents, and zero management fees to landlords. Sophie has lived and worked in Malaysia, Thailand, Vietnam, Fiji, Spain and Indonesia, where she bought an island and built her own scuba diving resort. Sophie's rapid success in property is self-explanatory when we consider her vast experience in business, sales and marketing, and the lessons her scuba diving resort taught her in management, excellence and professionalism in customer service. 

In this episode, Sophie talks about the business side of HMOs, the lessons learned the hard way, and how she navigates the always tricky cash flow. We also discuss the importance of networking, what makes HMOs so attractive and much more.
