joining us is hostmaker‘s founder and chief executive, nakul sharma. now. thank you forjoining us today on the programme. this sounds great, i suppose. if you have a spare house, for example, in london, where you wa nt to for example, in london, where you want to be renting out to people but it sounds like you may end up not making that much money if you are a homeowner? not that many people have a spare house to flog on the internet in the first place! interestingly, we deliver over 30% higher earnings than conventional renting solutions. my background is hospitality, i used to work in hotels and one of the things that we noticed was as home schering grew in popularity, we were seeing that homes were being used in different ways, especially after trends around flexible working, remote working, and we have people using rental contracts in very different ways. people are no longer used to committing to a one—year contract or a three—year contract, and especially as we see that experience with travel experiences are being more valued than asset ownership
