Tim Hubbard explains PadSplit, a platform for renting rooms individually instead of whole units. Landlords can roughly double their income compared to traditional long-term rentals, while tenants pay less by sharing housing. It works best when standard rentals underperform.

But the reality is that people are having to find cheaper options for their housing. And one way people can easily do that is by rooming up with someone else, by having a roommate, by moving back in with the family. And So I think PadSplit, which is designed to facilitate this, it's designed to help us with our rental properties earn more money on our end as a landlord, but also help the tenant pay a lower amount per month because they're sharing the space. So this isn't going to work for all of you and all of your investment properties out there, but maybe you have a property where you're thinking, you know what? I can't rent short term in this market, but my long term rents aren't that great. Or I think I could double my long term rates if I just rented by the room.
