Structured Living: The Operator's Blueprint for Co-Living (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9798196997389)

Master the System Behind Profitable Co-Living

Most people think co-living is about renting rooms. They're wrong.
Successful co-living is an operations business disguised as real estate.

In A Master's Guide to Co-Living, real estate operator Jeff Deppe breaks down the exact systems, structures, and operational discipline required to build scalable, profitable single-family co-living housing that actually works long term.

This is not a theory book filled with trendy buzzwords or communal living ideals. It's a field manual for serious operators, investors, developers, and entrepreneurs looking to understand how institutional-grade co-living is built, managed, and scaled.

Inside, you'll learn:

• How to convert and design homes specifically for co-living
• The operational systems that reduce conflict, damage, and turnover
• Why structure, inspections, and enforcement matter more than amenities
• How to scale maintenance, cleaning, and property operations efficiently
• The underwriting principles behind profitable co-living acquisitions
• How to build a co-living model investors can actually trust

Drawing from real-world experience operating high-density single-family housing, this book reveals why co-living is one of the most management-intensive - and potentially highest-performing - sectors in residential real estate.

Whether you're an investor, operator, developer, or simply exploring the future of housing, this book will change the way you think about co-living forever.
