House hacking, made simple
A hackable home has separate rentable spaces — an ADU, a lockoff suite, a walkout level. You live in one part, rent the rest, and let your tenants cover most (or all) of your mortgage.

Most buyers stretch to afford a home that produces nothing. A hackable home flips the equation: the right floor plan turns unused square footage into monthly income — without buying a duplex or becoming a full-time landlord.
Sections of a home — a walkout basement, a wing with its own entrance, a rec room with a wet bar — that can be separated ("locked off") and rented while you live in the rest.
Accessory dwelling units with their own kitchen, bath, and entrance. A permitted ADU is the gold standard: a true second residence on a single-family property.
Rent from an ADU and one or two lockoff suites can offset most of a mortgage. In the right property, owners live for free — or close to it.
Featured hackable home
A light-filled mountain home in Hiwan Hills with a private, permitted ADU — full kitchen, bath, and its own deck entrance — plus a rec room with wet bar and a flexible layout that supports several additional lockoff configurations.
Live in the main home. Rent the ADU and a lockoff suite. Your estimated out-of-pocket housing cost could drop near $0–$1,100/month in one of Colorado's most desirable foothills towns.

We identify homes with the bones for it: separate entrances, walkout levels, existing ADUs, plumbing in the right places, and zoning that allows rentals.
Purchase price, financing, market rents, taxes, insurance — we model your true monthly cost before you make an offer, not after.
Move into the space that fits your life, lease out the others, and put the difference toward equity, savings, or your next property.
