Employee housing has become a core part of operational infrastructure and is critical to hiring and retaining talent.

Rising costs, limited inventory, and geographic labor challenges now place housing at the center of workforce stability and service delivery.

Clubs understand the need, but execution stalls. The challenge is not housing itself. It is the ownership model traditionally required to secure housing. Common barriers include assessment resistance, balance sheet exposure, governance optics, and the burden of owning non-member-facing assets.

DENEHY Club Thinking Partners and Blue Hour Housing deliver a fully integrated workforce housing solution without requiring clubs to own or manage housing.

This model removes capital risk while securing long-term housing access and is already operating in hospitality-driven markets where housing constraints are most acute.

• No assessments.
• No capital outlay.
• No balance sheet impact.
• Professionally managed, off-site housing.
• Long-term access aligned to staffing needs.
• Transfer of real estate and operating risk away from the club.

Engagement begins with a confidential discussion to assess staffing needs, local housing constraints, and operational priorities.

From there, DENEHY Club Thinking Partners and Blue Hour Housing evaluate market feasibility and align next steps without obligation or disruption to club operations.

DENEHY Club Thinking Partners brings deep experience in governance, operations, and Board-level decision-making.
