#209: Sober Living & Group Homes: Creating Cash Flow With a Purpose - Jim Boad

What if you could generate $4,500/month in cash flow from a single 5-bedroom home — while helping people rebuild their lives? In this episode, Chris sits down with Jim Boad, a real estate investor who pivoted from house flipping to sober living homes and never looked back. Jim breaks down exactly how his recovery housing model works, what it costs to get started, and why this niche flies under the radar of most investors. In this episode you'll learn: How Jim generates ~$8,500 in gross monthly cash flow per 5-bedroom home Why sober living has a $3,000–$6,000 barrier to entry (lower than almost any real estate strategy) The difference between sober living and rehab — and why it matters legally How to source pre-funded residents through inpatient drug clinics Jim's management system: how he runs 5 walkthrough visits per week and keeps operations tight Why shared bedrooms actually improve recovery rates AND cash flow How Jim uses Sobriety Hub to manage residents, beds, accountability, and operations in one place Whether you're looking for a high cash flow real estate niche or a business model with real community impact, this episode will open your eyes to an opportunity most investors completely overlook. 🔗 Connect with Jim Boad: Group Home Accelerator (Skool Community): https://www.skool.com/group-home-accelerator-9111/about Sobriety Hub — Run your recovery housing in one clean system: SobrietyHub.app/Sign-Up Get 10% off Sobriety Hub with code: JimBoadDiscount 🎙️ Follow Chris: Instagram: @chris.reichenbach TikTok: @chris.reichenbach #RealEstateInvesting #CashFlow #SoberLiving #RecoveryHousing #RealEstatePodcast #GroupHomes #CreativeRealEstate #PassiveIncome #RealEstateTips #LeadwayPodcast #HouseHacking #RealEstateStrategy #RecoveryBusiness #SobrietyHub #WealthBuilding #FinancialFreedom #Entrepreneurship #RealEstateNiche #SmallBusinessOwner #InvestingTips
