ABOUT VANN VOGSTAD

Hi, I’m Vann Vogstad – Founder & CEO of COHO 🤘I believe shared living isn’t just a fallback when you can’t afford your own place – it can be one of the most exciting, fulfilling ways to live. Done right, it’s part of the solution to three of today’s biggest challenges: the housing crisis, the loneliness epidemic, and our environmental footprint.That’s why we built COHO, a property management system – starting with the toughest, most under-served part of the market: HMOs and co-living. By solving the hardest problems first, we’ve created one of the leading all-in-one lettings platforms for both agencies and landlords.With COHO, you can run almost everything from one place – tenant find, onboarding, compliance, maintenance, renewals, communications, finances – without juggling a dozen different tools or spreadsheets. It’s built for the complexity of shared living but powerful enough for any portfolio, from a single rental to nationwide operations.Today, COHO is used by some of the UK’s largest HMO operators, progressive agencies, and independent landlords. What started as HMO-focussed has became the software of choice for any agency or individual who value a product-first approach by a team who is genuinely passionate about the industry and our customers.And beyond software, we’re pushing for a future where shared living is recognised as a premium, sustainable lifestyle choice – not a compromise. My History I’ve founded two previous tech startups, both acquired by global companies:Tipstrr – now the world’s leading sports predictions marketplace, with thousands of professional tipsters selling tens of thousands of verified tips every week, acquired by international marketing business.One Place Events – an event discovery and ticketing platform launched in 9+ cities worldwide, acquired by a KPMG Top 100 Fintech.My passion is finding creative ways to disrupt industries and leave a positive impact.
