About Co-Living
Co-living is an innovative housing solution born out of dissatisfaction with the offerings of the traditional housing market. More than just providing accommodation, it’s a way to bring people together and give them access to incredible shared amenities like a gym, co-working, and outdoor spaces. It provides professionally managed, good value and flexible accommodation, which meets the underserved requirements of Generation Rent.
Strategy
COLIV is a response to the sizeable gap in London’s Private Rented Sector (PRS) market for high specification studio accommodation. The Fund’s aim is to help resolve the housing issues faced by renters, by delivering on their expectations of quality and convenience and fulfilling their desire to feel part of a community.
Social impact
We recognise that the real estate industry has both the opportunity and responsibility to work towards resolving the most pressing social challenges of our time.
COLIV’s environmental and social impact strategy addresses four key areas: Housing; Environment; Health & Wellbeing; Community.
Portfolio
Our seed portfolio is well-connected with London’s major recreational and employment hubs. Folk Co-living delivers private studios and impressive shared spaces, including an on site gym, cinema, co-working space, roof terraces, community kitchen and dining and an on site restaurant.
