PadSplit Playbook: Scaling Affordable Housing Through Shared Living

A book by Dr. Connor Robertson.

PadSplit Playbook: Scaling Affordable Housing Through Shared Living addresses the operating model behind shared housing. The Google Play listing describes a guide to professionally managed room rentals and the use of underutilized single-family homes. This is a distinct subject from buying a conventional rental and leaving its management approach unchanged.

Author: Dr. Connor Robertson

Who this book is for

Property owners and housing operators evaluating shared living and room-rental operations.

A practical reading guide

Shared housing requires attention to both the property and the experience of the people living there. Layout, local requirements, maintenance, common spaces, and clear operating responsibilities all affect whether a property can work as intended. Use the book to frame the questions you need to investigate for a specific property. A platform listing or optimistic room count does not establish that a proposed conversion is appropriate for that location.

Use these questions to connect the topic to your own situation. They are companion reading prompts, rather than quotations from the book.

  • Which local occupancy and property requirements apply to this address?
  • How will common areas, repairs, and resident communication be managed?
  • What costs and vacancy assumptions belong in the operating budget?
