StayHaven converts single-family homes into professionally managed corporate housing communities. We handle the setup, the operations, and the members — you collect the returns.
Corporate housing is fully furnished, professionally managed accommodation designed for working professionals who need flexible, short-to-medium-term stays. Think travel nurses on 13-week assignments, remote workers relocating for a project, or tradespeople working seasonal contracts.
Unlike traditional rentals, corporate housing operates on a membership model with weekly rates that include everything: furniture, utilities, Wi-Fi, and access to shared amenities. Members are vetted professionals, not random tenants on a month-to-month lease.
The result for property owners? Significantly higher total revenue than a single long-term tenant, professionally managed operations, and a property that appreciates with consistent care and maintenance.
Traditional Single-Family Rental
1 tenant (or family), 1 lease, 1 monthly payment. If they leave, you have zero income until you find a replacement. Average rent in Winter Haven: $1,400–$1,800/month.
StayHaven Corporate Housing
4–7 vetted professional members in a co-living community, weekly membership dues, staggered move-in dates. If one member leaves, revenue continues from the others. Potential gross revenue: $3,000–$6,000+/month from the same property.
We understand the concerns. Let's address them directly, because what we do is fundamentally different from what people might assume.
Rooming houses are unregulated, overcrowded, and poorly managed. StayHaven properties are professionally operated corporate housing with vetted members, standardized furnishings, regular maintenance, and a dedicated management team. Every property meets our quality standards before a single member moves in.
Every member goes through a background check. Properties are inspected regularly. Common areas are maintained to hotel standards. Our management team handles everything from maintenance requests to member conduct — so your property is always in good hands.
StayHaven members are employed professionals: travel nurses, remote workers, tradespeople, healthcare workers. They pay weekly membership dues, have verifiable employment, and are building their careers. This is professional housing for working people, not social services.
Our members are actively employed or relocating for work. They choose StayHaven because it offers furnished, flexible housing without the commitment of a 12-month lease. Many are traveling healthcare workers, tech professionals, or skilled tradespeople on assignment.
StayHaven is not student housing and we do not market to college students looking for a party scene. Our properties are quiet, professional environments with clear community guidelines, quiet hours, and a culture of mutual respect. Members who don't meet our standards don't stay.
We maintain strict community standards. Every member signs a license agreement with clear expectations around noise, guests, cleanliness, and conduct. Our management team lives locally and responds quickly to any concerns. The result: neighbors who barely notice we're there.
Here's an illustrative scenario for a typical 4-bedroom single-family home in Winter Haven converted to the StayHaven model.

Our end-to-end program takes your property from where it is today to a fully operational corporate housing community. Here's exactly how it works.
You reach out and we schedule a property assessment. We'll evaluate your home's layout, location, condition, and potential for the corporate housing model. Not every property is a fit, and we'll tell you honestly whether yours is.
Once you decide to move forward, we conduct a detailed property study. We design the suite layout for each membership tier, identify any renovations needed to meet StayHaven standards, create a furnishing plan from our standardized catalog, and project your expected revenue.
We oversee the conversion of your property into a StayHaven-standard co-living community. This includes cosmetic renovations (painting, flooring, fixtures), furnishing every suite to our specifications, setting up shared spaces (kitchen, laundry, common areas), and ensuring the property meets our aesthetic and quality standards.
Once the property is ready, we list it across our marketing channels, begin accepting member applications, conduct background checks, and start placing vetted professionals in your property. Most properties reach 80%+ occupancy within the first 30–45 days.
From day one of operations, StayHaven handles everything: member screening, move-ins and move-outs, maintenance coordination, membership dues collection, community management, and monthly owner reporting. You receive your distributions on a consistent schedule with full transparency into the numbers.
Every property in our portfolio meets a consistent set of quality, aesthetic, and operational standards. This is how we protect your investment and maintain our reputation.
Whether you're ready to invest upfront or need financing to get your property operational, we have a path that works.
You cover the consulting fee ($3,000), renovation costs, and furnishing investment out of pocket. This gives you the fastest path to operations and the highest long-term returns since there are no financing costs.
Typical total investment: $8,000 – $20,000 depending on property condition and number of suites. This includes the $3,000 consulting and implementation fee, renovations, furniture, supplies, and initial setup.
Best for: Property owners with available capital who want to maximize net returns from day one.
Don't have the upfront capital? We work with a network of private lending investors who can fund the full conversion — consulting fee, renovations, furniture, and setup costs.
The loan is repaid directly from the property's operating revenue. You start receiving distributions once the financing is paid off, typically within 6–12 months depending on the project size and occupancy.
Best for: Owners who have a property but limited cash to invest upfront. The property pays for its own transformation.
When you partner with us, you get more than a management company. You get a complete operating system for your property.
Multiple vetted members paying weekly rates generate significantly more revenue than a single long-term tenant on a traditional lease.
Staggered member move-ins mean you're never fully vacant. Even when one member leaves, the others continue paying. Revenue doesn't drop to zero.
Regular maintenance, inspections, and professional management keep your property in excellent condition. Improvements during conversion increase your property value.
We handle member screening, move-ins, maintenance, dues collection, community management, and everything operational. You collect distributions.
Monthly financial reports with full visibility into occupancy, revenue, expenses, and your net distributions. No surprises, no hidden fees.
Your property becomes part of a community that supports working professionals, creates local employment connections, and contributes positively to the neighborhood.
No. Many of our property partners are out-of-state investors. StayHaven handles all local operations — you don't need to be anywhere near the property. We provide monthly reports and are always available by phone or email.
Single-family homes with 3–7 bedrooms in residential neighborhoods are ideal. The property should be in fair to good condition, have adequate bathrooms (at least 1 per 2–3 members), in-house laundry capability, and a functional kitchen. We'll evaluate your specific property during the consultation.
The consulting and implementation fee covers: on-site property assessment, suite layout and tier design, renovation scope and specifications, complete furnishing plan from our standardized catalog, revenue projections, operational setup (systems, listings, photography), and project management through launch. It does not cover the cost of furniture or renovation materials — those are quoted separately based on your property's needs.
StayHaven handles all cosmetic work: painting, flooring, fixtures, furnishing, and setup. If your property needs structural modifications that require permits (adding bathrooms, modifying load-bearing walls, electrical panel upgrades), that work is the owner's responsibility. We'll identify what's needed during the consultation and can recommend contractors, but permits and structural work stay with the property owner.
StayHaven charges a 10% management fee on gross membership revenue, plus a fixed $350/month fee that covers cleaning, landscaping, and routine property maintenance (for properties with up to 7 suites). There are no hidden charges. You'll see every line item in your monthly owner report, so you always know exactly where the money goes.
From the time we begin conversion, most properties are operational within 3–6 weeks depending on renovation scope. Once listed, we typically achieve 80%+ occupancy within 30–45 days. Properties in good condition with minimal renovation can be generating income within 4–6 weeks of signing the agreement.
Corporate housing operates within existing residential zoning in most jurisdictions. StayHaven properties function as single-family residential homes operating under a membership-based co-living model — not as hotels, boarding houses, or multi-family units. We carefully evaluate local regulations during the consultation phase. If your property is in a zone where this model wouldn't work, we'll tell you upfront.
Our management agreements include clear exit terms. If you decide to sell or transition the property, we work together on a timeline that respects existing member commitments while facilitating your goals. You're not locked into a lifetime contract.
We do. StayHaven manages all member relations, including enforcement of community guidelines. If a member violates the terms of their license agreement, our management team handles the situation directly — including removal if necessary. Property owners are never put in the position of dealing with member issues.
