Rent a place your whole life and you’ll hand a landlord
over 30 years — and own none of it.

Three steps to a deed.
Apply and match
Verify income, credit, and savings, then meet people whose finances and way of living fit yours — over video, then a 30-day trial.
Reserve your bedroom
Pick the share you want and reserve it. Your group closes together: the LLC takes the mortgage, you contribute your share of the down payment.
Live there, or sell whenever
Build equity from month one. When you want out, list your share on the marketplace and walk away with your equity plus the gain.
Why it holds together when one person leaves.
Permanent, not a timeshare
Your bedroom is yours for as long as you hold your share. No rotating weeks, no calendar. You own it.
The LLC borrows, not you
The home is owned by an LLC that carries the mortgage. You're never personally liable for another owner's share.
Character set at formation
Child-free or family, quiet or social, pets or none — declared before anyone moves in. You self-select in.
The first questions, answered.
See all questions →Yes — with one to three carefully vetted people whose finances and lifestyle fit yours, the same way millions of people already share rentals. The difference is that you build equity instead of paying a landlord. The vetting, the matching, the 30-day trial, and the operating agreement are what make it work.
The structure is built to keep the mortgage current without touching you. Every owner is underwritten at application — income, credit, and months of carrying cost in savings — which filters out most defaults before closing. Each LLC also holds several months of mortgage reserves. If an owner falls behind, their membership units are re-sold through the marketplace to a new vetted owner, and you are never personally liable for their share.
You list your share on the Casita Marketplace. Existing owners get the first right to buy it at indexed market value, then it opens to other vetted buyers. You walk away with your original equity, the principal you paid down, and your share of appreciation.
The structure is LLC ownership with proprietary use rights that assign each owner exclusive use of one bedroom — a cooperative-ownership approach with long-standing precedent in the United States. Each Casita is its own Florida LLC, and every operating agreement is reviewed by a Florida real estate attorney before a group closes.
Once every share in your chosen home is reserved by vetted owners, closing happens as a group, typically within 60 to 90 days.
