Room-Level Complexity
Tracking availability and occupancy at the room level, rather than the whole-property level, was difficult without a purpose-built system.
PROPTECH MVP CASE STUDY
Turning Shared Accommodation Into One Managed Community
Operators of shared accommodation were managing residents, room availability, payments and maintenance across disconnected tools with no shared view of the community. MVPHUB designed and built a co-living MVP that brings residents, rooms, payments and maintenance into one connected platform.
▣ One Platform, Every Room Residents, room availability and payments are managed from a single connected system.
♙ Built For Shared Living Designed around the specific dynamics of co-living, not a standard single-unit rental tool.
✦ Greenfield MVP Build Designed, built and shipped from a validated concept to a working first release.
Bringing Co-Living Operations Into One Connected Workflow
Operating shared accommodation means managing multiple residents per property, room-level availability, individual payment schedules and shared maintenance needs, often at the same time as fostering a sense of community. Disconnected tools make this coordination harder as more houses and rooms are added.
The co-living management platform gives operators a single system of record for residents, room availability, payments, maintenance and community services, so every shared property can be run consistently.

The Challenge
Fragmented Resident & Payment Records
Resident details and individual payment schedules were tracked inconsistently across spreadsheets and messages.
No Shared View Of Maintenance & Community
Maintenance needs and community activities had no central place to be logged, tracked or shared with residents.
What We Can Identified
A connected co-living platform built around the shared realities of managing residents, rooms and community life.
Room & Property Management
Operators track room-level availability and occupancy across every managed property in one place.
Resident Records
Every resident has a structured profile linked to their room and payment schedule, replacing scattered spreadsheets.
Payment Tracking
Operators can see which resident payments are recorded and outstanding, with a shared view across every house.
Maintenance Requests
Residents report shared or room-specific issues while operators track each request through to resolution.
Community Services
Operators share community announcements and manage shared amenities, supporting the community aspect of co-living.
Occupancy Overview
Operators get a clear view of occupied and available rooms across the portfolio, supporting faster placement decisions.
How MVPHUB Deliver The Co-Living Platform From Concept To MVP
1
◇ Discover
We mapped the daily workflows of co-living operators managing residents, rooms and shared spaces.
2
✎ Define
Core workflows for rooms, residents, payments and maintenance were prioritized for the first release.
3
✦ Design
Screens and flows were designed around room-level management and community coordination, not a single-unit rental template.
4
♢ Build & Verify
Our engineering team built and tested the core platform, reviewing each workflow for reliability before release.
5
⌁ Launch
The MVP shipped as a working platform ready to support real shared-accommodation communities.
A connected co-living platform turns scattered room, resident and payment tracking into one reliable system operators can run a community on.
Engineering Behind The Platform
Room-Level Data Model
Properties, rooms, residents and payments were modeled as connected records at the room level, not just the property level.
Reliable Core Workflows
Resident, payment and maintenance workflows were built and tested to hold up under everyday co-living operations.
Built For Continued Growth
The MVP was designed so additional features can be layered on as the platform is validated with real operators and residents.
The Outcome

From Scattered Tracking To A Connected Co-Living Platform
Design around shared living realities. Build the core first. Validate with real communities.
Co-living operators don't need every feature on day one — they need a reliable place to track rooms, residents, payments and maintenance. MVPHUB focused the first release on those core workflows, giving the client a working platform ready to be tested with real shared-accommodation communities.
THE MVPHUB PRINCIPLE
"A co-living platform doesn't need every feature to be useful on day one. It needs room-level tracking, resident records, payments and maintenance to work reliably together, so real communities can be run on it from the first release.
