Investment Details

When you invest in ROOM FOR RENT, you’re purchasing Revenue Share Units (RSUs) in PBGM RFR Productions LLC, the company that owns all rights to the series. These RSUs give you the right to receive payments based on the show’s net revenues, but they do not give you ownership in the company or voting rights.

Here’s how it works:

  • Once the show starts generating net revenues, you will get quarterly payments based on your share of the total RSUs sold, as long as the show generates net revenue.
  • You will continue to receive payments from quarterly net revenue distributions until you’ve received 120% of your investment. After that, you’ll still earn a smaller share of future net revenue distributions, also sharing with the series’ creators, talent, and others who have helped with the show (including CreatorCut).

It’s a way to share in the success of ROOM FOR RENT while supporting the creators behind it!

Project Description

Cooper (PRESTON GARCIA) and Lauren (MITSY SANDERSON) are floundering twenty-something siblings, poster children of the frustrated malaise of their generation. So when they inherit their grandmother’s house, they’re sure they’ve hit the jackpot. Unfortunately, their inheritance comes burdened with huge costs that put them at risk of losing the house before they’ve even settled in. In need of fast cash, they create an illegal scheme to rent their spare room to a rotating cast of short-term tenants, each of whom seems to get them into increasingly hotter water. Along with their childhood best friend, Jay (LONNIE MARTS III), Cooper and Lauren navigate becoming landlords, trying not to kill each other, and getting their shit together long enough to achieve the dream lives that Grandma believed they deserved all along. ROOM FOR RENT is an anthology-style series, each episode driven by different tenants who cycle through the house each week, creating more drama for Cooper and Lauren’s already chaotic life.
