Our take
Colonies is a co-living startup aiming to take the hassle out of renting in large cities. The company provides managed, fully-furnished shared housing, where all community spaces are cleaned and maintained no-fuss, freeing occupants from many of the problems associated with shared living.
While the company does offer private flats, it shines with its co-living spaces. All accommodations are fully equipped and functional, with the possibility to move in within a week, and packages come with all bills included to make pricing as transparent for renters as possible.
The company has seen good funding that has facilitated its expansion from Paris into a number of French cities as well as Berlin and Brussels, across which it manages over 3,000 apartments..
On top of this, the company has announced a partnership with the CDC Habitat group, a global operator of housing in the public interest, as part of a collaboration that will create a multitude of new co-living residences across major cities
