How to 10X Your Rental Income with Sober Living & Group Homes with Jim Boad

How to 10X Your Rental Income with Sober Living & Group Homes with Jim Boad

What if your rental properties could deliver strong cash flow and transform lives?

In this episode, Brian Hamrick talks with Jim Boad, founder of Shelton Housing and author of Group Home Accelerator, about how investors can build profitable, non-licensed group homes—specifically sober living homes—that provide safe, structured housing for people in recovery.

Jim has launched more than 14 recovery homes in just two years, with more on the way. He shares:

  • Why the demand for sober living and recovery housing is exploding nationwide

  • The difference between licensed vs. non-licensed group homes (and why non-licensed is often easier)

  • How to structure your properties for maximum occupancy and accountability

  • Typical costs, rents, and how investors are earning 5–10X more cash flow than traditional rentals

  • The challenges, community concerns, and fair housing rules you need to know

  • How Jim leverages AI to streamline his business and even secure grants

If you've ever wondered how to combine real estate investing with real impact, this conversation will open your eyes to a niche with both heart and high returns.
