First National Co-Living Conference Launches in Denver June 6-7

First-Ever National Co-Living Conference Brings Together Top Real Estate Investors, Developers, and Housing Advocates to Address America's Housing Crisis

DENVER, May 31, 2025 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- The inaugural Co-Living Conference, set for June 6–7, 2025, in Denver, will unite top real estate investors, developers, and housing advocates to tackle America's housing crisis.

The two-day conference will feature speakers who collectively manage over $200 million in co-living portfolios and have converted thousands of traditional rental properties into co-living spaces.

With housing costs continuing to outpace income growth across major metropolitan areas, co-living has emerged as a proven solution that increases housing affordability by 30-50% while generating superior returns for property investors. The conference will showcase strategies that have helped create over 20,000 co-living doors across the United States, from single-family home conversions to purpose-built developments.

MARKET CONTEXT

Housing costs continue to outpace income growth in major metropolitan areas. Co-living models reduce housing costs for residents by 30-50% compared to traditional private accommodations while generating higher rental income for property owners.

Conference speakers report occupancy rates of 95-97% in their co-living properties. Properties converted to co-living typically generate 40-60% higher rental income compared to traditional leasing models.
