Most real estate models follow the same path: buy a property, rent it out, raise the rent, repeat. And for decades, that worked. But now, the numbers don’t pencil out the way they used to.
Rents are rising, but so are vacancies. Landlords are spending more to attract less reliable tenants. And the people who actually need housing—essential workers, service professionals, contract employees—are being priced out entirely.
PadSplit offers a different path.
Instead of renting a full home, property owners rent out individual bedrooms. The setup is legal, clean, private, and affordable. Renters pay one weekly fee that includes everything—Wi-Fi, utilities, furnishings.
It’s not a short-term rental. It’s not Section 8. It’s a system that fills the gap between traditional housing and unstable alternatives.
And most importantly, it works for everyone involved.
Owners get consistent cash flow. Residents get access to housing that fits their lifestyle and budget. Cities get one more solution to a growing affordability crisis.
This isn’t some trendy niche—it’s a smarter way to use the housing stock we already have.
I’ve spent years analyzing real estate models. Very few create lasting value the way PadSplit does.
