**St Petersburg TBREIA Meets Every 1st Tuesday of the Month at Green Bench Brewing Co. from 7pm-9pm

Could one ordinary house produce significantly more income without buying more doors?

In this practical, Q&A-driven session, co-living investor and strategist Hawk Mikado will provide a quick breakdown of how PadSplit and rent-by-the-room investing work, followed by an open conversation addressing the questions investors and property owners are really asking.

Attendees will learn: ● How PadSplit and co-living differ from traditional, short-term, and mid-term rentals ● What makes a property, floor plan, and location work for co-living ● How to estimate room rents, occupancy, expenses, and realistic cash flow ● What to consider regarding local regulations, parking, neighbors, financing, and insurance ● How screening, smart locks, cleaning, house rules, and operating systems reduce day-to-day management

Whether you are considering buying a property, converting one you already own, or simply exploring the strategy, this session will help you understand the opportunities, challenges, and realities of co-living.
