COHO makes strides into the HMO market

WORCESTER, U.K. - July 30, 2020 - PRLog -- COHO, developed and built by Worcester-based technology entrepreneur Vann Vogstad and his team has launched into the HMO marketplace ready to tackle its competitors head on. The platform allows property investors to effortlessly manage their portfolio whilst providing a way for young professionals to find high quality house shares, with the focal point being who they live with rather than where they live.

In 2018, there were an estimated 497,000 registered HMOs in England and Wales and with rising rent and property costs in larger towns and cities they are becoming increasingly popular with young professionals and yield a higher profit margin for investors.

Founder Vann Vogstad said: "COHO is built from the ground up specifically for HMO management. We break all tasks and compliancy into 25+ services, all of which you can use for free. Kind of like having an amazing personal assistant. COHO helps tenants find not only the right home but the right people. We will remove the anxiety young professionals have about house shares, ushering in the era of co-living instead of HMOs."

Local entrepreneur Vann is no stranger to building and sustaining a technology start up, with a deep passion for finding creative solutions to existing marketplace problems, having built and sold 2 other similar startups since 2018. His team is bolstered by Co-Founders Liam Cooper, CTO and experienced COO Jon Hurley.

So how does it work? COHO is a next generation SAAS PropTech platform that enables flexible and effortless end-to-end management of HMO properties through AI-driven automation. By seamlessly overlapping over 25 services, COHO uses AI to mimic the approach traditionally undertaken by property management agents, and is scalable throughout the UK.
