Shared Living Space
When most people think of rental property, privacy instantly comes to mind. Your apartment, flat, or condo provides privacy and safety without breaking the bank. Also, it can provide you with the perfect environment to grow your business ventures at an affordable price. While co-living means sharing a rental space with one or more people, each tenant is given their own private room.
Private Apartments, Communal Spaces and Private Bedrooms
Co-living very similar to congregate housing. Both are shared living, with each tenant having his or her own bedroom. The rest of the home is open to all tenants. When you break co-living down, you get private sleeping spaces and shared communal spaces like the kitchen, living room, bathroom, recreational room, and mudroom. Which is why it’s perfect for entrepreneurs trying to save money.
