The basics on insuring your commercial property, whether it's a room rental, long-term rental, or short-term rental. For a lot of investors, insurance is the blocker between interest and commitment. The property pencils, the market is there, and then the homeowners policy does not cover the way the home is actually being used. I would rather you find that out now than after you go live. This session is for investors who already own single family homes, or are about to, and want to understand what the right coverage actually looks like. This webinar will go over the leasing strategies that we are all familiar with as well as newer ones like room-by-room or coliving. Suzanne Vetillart sits down with Trevor Elliott, who has spent more than 14 years in commercial insurance, credentialed as a Real Estate Insurance Broker at HUB International, with direct access to admitted carriers and specialty programs.

Once the numbers work, success comes from operating the property around the member experience, not just listing it and waiting for bookings.

Moderated by Jan Konrad of WAREI, the discussion will cover how hosts are successfully acquiring and operating PadSplits.

Property managers know the challenge: door-by-door growth only gets you so far.
In this session, Suzanne Vetillart of PadSplit and property management acquisition specialist Stacey Salyer take a numbers-first look at rent-by-room as a way to increase revenue per property and create a new growth engine—without adding more doors.
We’ll break down the model using conservative assumptions, explain how PadSplit supports PM-run properties, and get into the operational realities that often hold operators back—including difficult tenancies, evictions, screening, documentation, and prevention.
You’ll also learn how PadSplit’s marketplace, member screening, 24/7 support, management tools, and new host protection tool, HostGuard, can reduce operational lift and help protect your portfolio.
