ABOUT US

We are just a couple of goofballs who love real estate. 💕

We’re Paul and Harris, a couple on a mission to help everyday people create wealth, build community, and transform the way they live. What started as a simple experiment in house hacking (renting out spare rooms in our first home) turned into an epic, life-changing journey. We thought we were just offsetting our mortgage, but instead, we gained friendship, purpose, and a whole new perspective on what “family” and community can look like.

Our first housemate, Aziz, transformed our lives in ways we didn't expect. He came as a stranger and left as a best friend. We connected over board games, chicken dinners, and many late-night conversations. Watching him grow, buy his own home, and start building a community of his own showed us the power of shared living. That experience inspired us to share what we’ve learned so others can enjoy the same freedom, wealth-building opportunities, and connection that house hacking offers.

We believe room rentals are more than just a financial strategy. It’s a way to erase loneliness, foster meaningful relationships, and accelerate financial growth. Through our free resources, workshops, sprints, and personalized calls, we help people take the leap from dreaming about building wealth to living it.

Whether you’re just curious, ready to rent your first room, or looking for step-by-step guidance, we’re here to provide practical advice, proven strategies, and a community that has your back.

We’re not just teaching you about room rentals. We’re showing you how to create a life where your home, your wealth, and your relationships all thrive together.
