Can AI help you become a more informed co-living owner without taking over your property manager’s job?

In this episode of The Co-Living Show, Miller McSwain and Craig Curelop sit down with Tanya Zorov, a co-living investor who lives in New Jersey and owns two properties in Jacksonville, Florida.

Tanya explains how she purchased two already-operating co-living homes, kept the existing property manager in place, and began using AI to improve her oversight of the portfolio. She shares how she combines income and expense data, monitors cash flow, tracks repairs, studies room performance, and evaluates potential acquisitions through her own AI-powered operating system.

In this episode, you’ll learn:

• Why Tanya chose Jacksonville for her out-of-state investments
• The advantages of purchasing an operating co-living property
• How a local property manager supports remote ownership
• The true cost of combining PadSplit with property management
• How Tanya uses AI to review income, expenses, and net cash flow
• A simple way beginners can start analyzing portfolio data with AI
• Why occupancy can significantly affect smaller co-living properties
• What Tanya will look for in her next co-living acquisition
• Why strong local relationships still matter in an AI-powered business

Tanya’s advice for beginners is simple: start small. Export the data from your income and bookkeeping platforms, add it to an AI project, and begin asking questions about the performance of your portfolio.
