The numbers

What one coliving home can earn you.

Every bedroom has its own ensuite and its own agreement, fully furnished with bills included, and managed by us from handover. The 5x5 is our smallest home, because anything smaller doesn't deliver good cash flow.

Why coliving

Same house. Very different income.

A standard rental earns one rent from one household. A coliving home earns five, because each ensuited room is let on its own agreement to a working professional.

Let as a standard rental
$720/wk

Median weekly rent for a whole house in Haynes, WA. About 3.4% gross on a $1.09M package.

Let room by room as coliving
$1,920–$1,950/wk

Four ensuite rooms at $365–$370 plus a couple's room at $460–$470, fully furnished with bills included. About 9.1–9.3% gross.

Haynes package example. Whole-house figure is the published suburb median rent (Aug 2026). Coliving figure is our estimate from current room rates. Coliving rents include utilities and internet, which the owner pays, and the home needs furniture and the 1B fire & safety package.

We already run coliving homes in Perth and Melbourne.

Most people selling coliving packages hand you the keys and walk away. We manage the home after handover, and our residents and occupancy show it.

"Thanks to Melissa and investing in coliving, I've cut down my hours at work to part-time and have so much more time with my family and young son. The passive income from my two properties is over $50k, and their seamless service has given me the confidence to go for my third."

Gary GProperty investor, Sydney

"This is the start of my journey to time freedom. The Done-For-You service was incredible, and my first property is already helping me earn around $25k in passive income."

Daniel DSystem administrator, Sydney

"We are very happy with Melissa and her company Elevate Coliving in being able to keep our investment running at full capacity, unlike our previous company. If you are looking at this type of model to invest don't cut yourself short, join Mel and do well!"

What our Perth homes earn today.

These are existing homes we converted and now manage. A new build is designed for coliving from day one, so it should do at least as well.

5 bedroom 5 ensuite coliving new build
Designed to be managed

Every room earns its keep.

We design the layout with the build team, because we're the ones who manage it afterwards. That means we care about which rooms rent best and how the home works for five or six working adults, not just how many rooms fit.

  • Five or six ensuited bedrooms, including a larger couple's room
  • Shared kitchen, living and laundry sized for every resident
  • 1B fire & safety specification built in from day one
  • Furnished, photographed and marketed before handover
  • Ongoing management, maintenance and compliance by our team
How it works

From first call to first rent.

One team from start to finish, so nothing falls between the builder, the furniture and the property manager.

Is it right for you?

Coliving isn't for every investor.

We'd rather tell you now than after you've signed.

It usually suits you if

  • You want stronger cash flow than a standard rental
  • You have finance in place, or a broker working on it
  • You plan to hold for the long term
  • You'd like a specialist team to run it for you

It probably won't if

  • You want to live in the home yourself
  • You're mainly chasing short-term capital growth
  • You'd rather manage a single household yourself
  • You need the cheapest possible entry price
How the money works

What you need, and what it earns.

An example using our Haynes 5x5 package with an 80% loan. Your numbers will depend on your lender, structure and lot, and we'll go through them with you on a call.

Brand newNew homes usually attract strong depreciation. Ask your accountant and a quantity surveyor about your situation.

Estimates only, not financial advice. Based on the Haynes package price, current room rates and running costs from homes we manage. Some lenders add interest during the build to the loan, which lowers the cash needed. For a 6x6, plan for about $360k.

Common questions

Before you enquire.

Who manages the home once it's built?

We do. Elevate Coliving manages coliving homes across WA and VIC, including finding residents, rent collection, maintenance and compliance. Management is charged as a percentage of rent collected.

Who are the residents?

Mostly working professionals, health workers and tradespeople who want a quality furnished room with bills included. Each resident signs their own agreement and pays a security deposit.

Are the rents guaranteed?

No. Rental figures are estimates based on what comparable rooms let for today, and on our own managed homes. We show ranges, not promises, and we'll walk you through the assumptions on a call.

Can I buy through an SMSF or a trust?

Yes, but the SMSF rules changed this year. From 10 August 2026, a self-managed super fund can no longer take out a new loan (a limited recourse borrowing arrangement) to buy residential property, and that includes coliving homes. An SMSF can still buy with its own funds. Trusts and companies were not affected by that change and can still borrow, though duty and land tax can work differently. The right structure depends on your situation, so please speak with your accountant or financial adviser before you commit. We're happy to work alongside them.

Should I choose the 5x5 or the 6x6?

The 6x6 earns more for a similar build, so if a suitable lot is available it's usually the stronger option. Fewer lots suit a 6x6, so the 5x5 is the one you can secure today in our current estates. We'll show you both for your budget on your call.

Why don't you build smaller homes?

The 5x5 is our smallest home. Below five ensuite rooms, the rent no longer covers the loan and running costs well enough to give you good cash flow.

I already own land. Can you build on it?

Often, yes. Send us the address and we'll check zoning, lot size and whether a 5x5 or 6x6 fits, including infill sites in established suburbs.

What do I need to get started?

Most investors plan for about $350k in cash or usable equity, plus finance pre-approval or a broker working on it. If you're not there yet, the investor pack is a good place to start.
