If you are a professional moving to a new city for the first time looking to make their mark on a new life and career, choosing your accommodation can be one of the most tricky and stressful parts of the whole process! If you’ve landed on this page, you may be new to co-living or weighing up your options on the rental market. Read on to learn more.
What’s included: Co-Living vs flats/houses
Renting a whole building in the form of a house or flat, in most cases only covers the roof above your head and little else. Furthermore, you are quite often required to fork out quite a large amount of cash to invest in new furnishings and necessities as whole buildings tend to be provided unfurnished/part furnished.
At Co-Lux living, you can expect a seamless semi-serviced offering, with modern fully furnished bedrooms and communal areas, as well your monthly rental payment including, all utilities, hi-speed WiFi AND communal cleaning and seasonal gardening. We take care of all the hassle that comes with renting in the capital, so you as a busy professional do not have to! Your time is valuable and limited, so we understand why organising gas bills and council tax is a regular annoyance you’d rather avoid.
Affordability
In the current age of the housing crisis across the UK, where major cities are overpopulated and rents are skyrocketing, co-living provides professionals with an affordable and convenient way for anyone to live in major locations like London And Manchester!
A Co-Lux living renter can on average save between £350-£750 per month compared to renting a traditional studio or 1 bedroom flat. These savings include the cost of utilities, WIFI and communal cleaning. This is not taking into consideration the savings achieved by avoiding the spend of £1000s on a trip to Ikea to furnish your flat. Professionals then also have the added stress and hassle of either frantically selling it 1 year later when you may need to move again, at a fraction of the price you paid one year prior! Or, the other option would be paying £100s for a removal company to take the furniture to your new accommodation. Either way, substantial losses are inevitable for mobile renters!
Flexibility
Co-Lux offers flexible contracts and tenancies to its tenants as well as the ability to transfer within Co-Lux homes across the capital. With most traditional rentals, you have to sign on for a 12 month (or longer) contract, and if you’re looking for a new flat — whether because you got a new job or just want to try out life in another city — that means breaking your contract and absorbing pitfalls that come with it. Unfortunately you will need to go through the flat searching process all over again.
Community
We take pride in providing truly harmonious homes across our portfolio of co-living homes. We care deeply about the people that are mixed together to ensure new relationships and friendships can naturally foster. The byproduct of this carefully orchestrated way of living is COMMUNITY.
If you’re new to the capital, you have the comfort of knowing when you enter one of our homes, you will have the opportunity to make friends, memories and have the experience of a lifetime! We love it when we see our tenants form new lasting friendships and go out for dinner, have a hilarious night out and even book a holiday! All of this is possible for new and existing tenants moving into a Co-Lux living home!
Join our community today! You wont regret it.
