To rebuild community and connection, knowing it brings people together and creates endless possibilities. With years of experience, we’ve seen and understand the benefits of co-living.
To us for so many reasons and given its increased popularity around the world, it seems this new revolution is here to stay. From the United Kingdom through to Germany, Denmark, Japan and more recently the USA, the co-living movement is gaining traction and appealing to a wide range of people for a variety of different reasons.
From an investment perspective, the co-living model increases the weekly yield substantially.

Choosing to co-live is a great idea
Sustainability

Co-living provides more spaces for more people to live, reducing urban sprawl and the carbon footprint of building multiple homes.
Affordability
Affordability
Perth, like many places around the world, is becoming unaffordable for many people. Young professionals, couples separating, individuals wanting to feel safe at home, and those wanting to save for a home of their own are amongst the people we’ve found homes for.
Minimal entry fees
Minimal entry fees
While there is a bond and rent in advance involved, the entry fee for a co-living space is far less than its traditional rental home counterparts. This is appealing to those who have cash-flow issues but need accommodation quite urgently.
No expenses after entry

Wifi and bills are all part of the weekly room rental cost for housemates, leaving the budgeting easy and stress-free
Community
Community
Living with others creates a sense of belonging and community. There are opportunities to have your own space, and also opportunities to cook together, watch movies together or just have a chat about your day.
Improved mental health
Improved mental health
Research recently published in journal BMC states co-living can have a beneficial impact on mental wellbeing, with increased social support, physical, emotional and economic security, a sense of community, as well as reduced social isolation cited.
Freedom
Freedom
Co-living allows flexibility and freedom. For those who don’t want to be tied to long-term leases, or the hassle of storing furniture when moving or travelling, co-living is a great solution. In our homes, all furniture and essentials like toasters, kettles, plates and cutlery are provided. There is, of course, a minimum notice period allowing us to re-fill the room quickly and protect our investors’ interests.
Innovation
