What if your rental properties could deliver strong cash flow and transform lives?
In this episode, Brian Hamrick talks with Jim Boad, founder of Shelton Housing and author of Group Home Accelerator, about how investors can build profitable, non-licensed group homes—specifically sober living homes—that provide safe, structured housing for people in recovery.
Jim has launched more than 14 recovery homes in just two years, with more on the way. He shares:
Why the demand for sober living and recovery housing is exploding nationwide
The difference between licensed vs. non-licensed group homes (and why non-licensed is often easier)
How to structure your properties for maximum occupancy and accountability
Typical costs, rents, and how investors are earning 5–10X more cash flow than traditional rentals
The challenges, community concerns, and fair housing rules you need to know
How Jim leverages AI to streamline his business and even secure grants
If you've ever wondered how to combine real estate investing with real impact, this conversation will open your eyes to a niche with both heart and high returns.

Ruthie's Table 4
For more than 30 years The River Cafe in London, has been the home-from-home of artists, architects, designers, actors, collectors, writers, activists, and politicians. Michael Caine, Glenn Close, JJ Abrams, Steve McQueen, Victoria and David Beckham, and Lily Allen, are just some of the people who love to call The River Cafe home. On River Cafe Table 4, Rogers sits down with her customers—who have become friends—to talk about food memories. Table 4 explores how food impacts every aspect of our lives. “Foods is politics, food is cultural, food is how you express love, food is about your heritage, it defines who you and who you want to be,” says Rogers. Each week, Rogers invites her guest to reminisce about family suppers and first dates, what they cook, how they eat when performing, the restaurants they choose, and what food they seek when they need comfort. And to punctuate each episode of Table 4, guests such as Ralph Fiennes, Emily Blunt, and Alfonso Cuarón, read their favourite recipe from one of the best-selling River Cafe cookbooks. Table 4 itself, is situated near The River Cafe’s open kitchen, close to the bright pink wood-fired oven and next to the glossy yellow pass, where Ruthie oversees the restaurant. You are invited to take a seat at this intimate table and join the conversation.
