How it works

From a pooled down payment to a deed with your name on it.

Casita is a marketplace and an ownership structure. Here's the whole path, start to finish.

1

Browse shares and reserve the one you want

Every bedroom in every home is listed as its own share, with its own price and monthly cost. Reserve the one that fits.

2

Verify and answer a few lifestyle questions

We confirm income, credit, and savings, then ask a short set of questions about how you live — quiet or social, pets, guests, schedule.

3

Get matched with your co-owners

We introduce you to the people you'd own with over a video meeting, followed by a 30-day cohabitation trial before anyone is committed.

4

Close as a group

The LLC takes the mortgage and you contribute your share of the down payment. You receive deeded membership units and the exclusive right to your bedroom.

5

Live there, or sell whenever

Build equity from month one. When you're ready to move on, list your share on the marketplace and keep your equity, paydown, and appreciation.

The legal structure

  • The LLC owns the house. You own membership units in the LLC.
  • Your units come bundled with the exclusive right to one specific bedroom — your Proprietary Use Agreement.
  • It's a cooperative-ownership approach with long-standing precedent in the United States, adapted for single-family and condo homes.
  • Every operating agreement is reviewed by a Florida real estate attorney before a group closes.

What happens when life changes

I want to leave

List your share on the Casita Marketplace. Existing owners get first refusal at indexed value, then it opens to other vetted buyers. Typical liquidity is 60 to 120 days.

A co-owner stops paying

Underwriting, LLC reserves, and a fast re-sale of the defaulter's membership units keep the mortgage current. You are never personally liable for their share.

I find a partner

Florida statutory roommate rights apply. Your partner can live with you as a roommate at no extra cost — they're a roommate, not a co-owner, unless the house votes them in.

I have a kid

Child-free homes ask that you sell and move out within twelve months. Child-friendly homes, with their own operating agreement, are part of the roadmap.
