Property Support from AJ

We work with property management companies to co-market their units as a flexible living package for students and employees. These properties can allow flexible lease terms, like month-to-month options, which cater to the unpredictable schedules of students or employees in high-turnover positions (like contractors or interns.)

Meet AJ, Your Property Specialist

I have over 10+ years in the airline industry and I began my real estate career house hacking. I quickly became an Airbnb Super Host! Throughout my career, I have gained invaluable experience creating innovative solutions in the airline industry and bridging the gap into the real estate market. My dedication to providing a high level of service in my work as well as my clients has helped me build reputation as a trustworthy and reliable investor.

My extensive knowledge of the traveling housing market allows me to guide my clients through the super host set up process with ease. My passion for real estate has also led me to become a valuable resource for those looking to invest in rental properties. With my expertise in house hacking and Airbnb hosting, I am able to offer unique insights and advice to those interested in this area of real estate. My travel background and my love for the industry makes me a standout in the field.

What is the House Hacking Model?

Properties are optimized to meet the needs of students and young professionals through flexible living arrangements. This involves transforming properties into dorm-style or co-living spaces, allowing for short-term, affordable leases and maximizing occupancy. The model offers a way for real estate investors and property managers to fill units efficiently by appealing directly to these groups’ unique needs for flexibility, affordability, and community.

We Offer Brand Assistance from Content Creation to Brand Exposure

Brand Partnerships: We collaborate with major home decor brands, offering students stylish furniture at a fraction of the cost, while creating value for the brands through exposure to the college demographic.

Offer Brand Exposure: We highlight the opportunity for home decor companies to feature their products in my student rentals. With existing partnerships (e.g., Airbnb, Hotels.com, Booking.com), these properties already attract significant traffic and visibility.

Co-branded Content: Create content like blog posts, social media campaigns, or videos featuring my student rentals and the decor products, demonstrating how the decor enhances the student living experience. Co-branding these materials would help both parties reach a wider audience.

Referral Programs: We work with properties to establish a referral system where tenants or student renters can refer decor brands to friends, earning rewards. This generates buzz around the home decor brands I partner with.
