Why sober living
A rental that made $600 a month became $6,000 in 90 days
A traditional single-family rental typically nets $200–$600 per month after expenses. The same property run as a sober living home rents by the bed, not the door, and commonly produces $3,000–$8,000 per month. Andrew Lamb converted his own $600/month rental into $6,000/month of cash flow in 90 days.
Traditional rental
$600/mo
One lease, one payment, thin margin. Years to meaningful cash flow, and one vacancy wipes out the profit.
Same house, sober living
$6,000/mo
Rented by the bed to residents who want a structured, substance-free home. Demand comes from treatment centers, courts, and families — not Zillow.
Our process
Three steps to your first filled home
Members follow one path: learn the model in a 6-week course, launch a home using our documents and market research, then fill the beds through referral relationships. Most members who attend coaching calls and take action open their first home within the 6-month program; many open two or three.
Learn
The 6-week course covers market research, property sourcing (rent, own, or arbitrage), setup, compliance, and our NARR-approved 40-page Policy & Procedures manual.
Launch
Open your home with our license agreement, house rules, and hiring documents. Weekly group coaching calls handle the questions your specific market raises.
Fill in 90 days
Run the F.A.S.T. Framework — Find the Flow, Activate Outreach, Spot the Patterns, Tailor the Model — to build referral relationships that fill beds. Members average their first residents within 90 days of starting.

Who's teaching this
Andrew Lamb runs the homes he teaches you to build
Andrew Lamb is a California sober living operator with 18 homes - he's buying his 19th right now - and the founder of Sober Living Riches. His operation has earned over $1.3 million in state grant funds for recovery housing. His first sober living home wasn't a rental he already had - it was a property he'd lined up to flip. Instead of selling it, he opened it as a recovery residence. He later took an existing rental producing $600 a month and 10x'd it to $6,000 - in under 90 days.
The program is quality-first: run a home that puts residents first and holds up to NARR state-affiliate certification standards. The income follows that standard - not the other way around.
Most consultants charge $15,000 to $25,000 to help you open one home, if they even get you that far. We've heard the horror stories: people who paid that much and had nothing to show for it, then joined our community and had their home up and running within 90 days. This program costs less, comes with a community of thousands of members, and the coaching continues until your home is running.

Follow our FAST Framework and get your first resident within 90 days of opening — or we step into your business and help you until you do.

Questions, answered directly
Sober living home FAQ
What is Sober Living Riches?
Sober Living Riches is a course, coaching program, and private community that teaches you how to start, fill, and scale a sober living home in 90 days or less. It's run by Andrew Lamb, a California operator with 18 homes, and has thousands of members nationwide.
How much does a sober living home make?
A typical sober living home cash flows $3,000–$8,000 per month once filled, depending on bed count and market. Members average over $5,000 per month per home. Revenue comes from weekly or monthly program fees paid per bed, so an 8-bed home out-earns a single-lease rental several times over.
Do I need a license to open a sober living home?
In most states, no license is required to open a standard sober living home, because residents live there voluntarily and no clinical treatment happens on site. Some states use voluntary certification (FARR in Florida, TROHN in Texas, CARR in Colorado). The program covers the requirements for your state.
What's included in the program?
The 6-week course, the private community, six months of weekly group coaching calls, a vault of 30+ hours of recorded calls, a nationwide market research list, launch calls, a NARR-approved 40-page Policy & Procedures manual, a license agreement, house rules, and hiring and onboarding documents.
What results should I expect?
Most members who attend the coaching calls and take action open at least one sober living home within the 6-month program. Many open two or three in their first few months. Results depend on your effort and market; outcomes on this site are documented member results, not guarantees.
Do I need to own property?
No. Most members rent homes from landlords using rental arbitrage: you lease the property, get written permission to operate, and rent by the bed. Members have negotiated free rent months and multi-year corporate-housing-style leases. Owning works too — the model is the same either way.
What if I don't have a location yet?
Starting without a location is normal — it means you can pick the right market instead of forcing a bad one. The program includes nationwide market research and teaches you how to evaluate demand from treatment centers, courts, and hospitals before you sign anything.
How much time does it take to run?
After launch, a sober living home doesn't require a full-time schedule. Members run homes with house managers and systems, often on a few hours a week. Several members operate homes from other states, and one runs a US home while living abroad.
Will residents damage my property?
Sober living residents choose to live in a structured, substance-free home — there's no court order forcing them. Homes have daily chores, house rules, and a house manager, so properties are typically cleaner and better maintained than standard rentals. Damage risk is no higher than any other rental model.
Does Sober Living Riches offer a guarantee?
Yes. Members who follow the FAST Framework get their first paying resident within 90 days of opening their doors, or Sober Living Riches continues coaching them at no additional cost until they do. Terms are in the member agreement; no refunds once a resident has moved in.
