But the shared economy brings us another concept, Co-living. <strong>Here we will give you 7 reasons why co-living is the future.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Co-living is not a new issue, student residences were the first steps of this type of housing, but little by little in major cities renting a room in your home or making the decision to share your space and expenses with friends is something that is lived more frequently. This more than an economic trend, is a new lifestyle within young students, young adults and foreigners who come to the cities to study, do internships or have a work experience for periods not very long, maximum 6 months. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image is-resized\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.getvico.com\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\"><img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/getvico.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/12\/coliving-vico-2.jpg\" alt=\"Co living an option to live better\n\" class=\"wp-image-13196\" width=\"600\" height=\"400\" title=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/getvico.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/12\/coliving-vico-2.jpg 800w, https:\/\/getvico.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/12\/coliving-vico-2-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/getvico.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/12\/coliving-vico-2-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/getvico.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/12\/coliving-vico-2-350x233.jpg 350w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 600px) 100vw, 600px\" \/><\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">What benefits does co-living bring?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Although there are many\nmyths and cultural barriers that currently exist, there are many more benefits\nthat can be found by having this lifestyle, whether you are the owner of the\nproperty, or if you are the one who seeks the service. Here we are going to\nname you the main ones and that in this way you give yourself the opportunity\nto have a co-living experience at least once in a lifetime.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">FLEXIBILITY<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In general, people who choose to live in co-living usually do so for short periods of time, for this reason those who are providing these options handle short contracts, with cancellation policies of only 30 days, without the need for a guarantor. In this way you will have greater flexibility in terms of contracts, mobility and lifestyle (know <a href=\"https:\/\/getvico.com\/blog\/en\/\">VICO<\/a>)<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><a href=\"https:\/\/getvico.com\/blog\/en\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"800\" height=\"349\" src=\"https:\/\/getvico.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/12\/co-living-rooms.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-13215\" title=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/getvico.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/12\/co-living-rooms.jpg 800w, https:\/\/getvico.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/12\/co-living-rooms-300x131.jpg 300w, https:\/\/getvico.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/12\/co-living-rooms-768x335.jpg 768w, https:\/\/getvico.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/12\/co-living-rooms-350x153.jpg 350w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\" \/><\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">READY SPACES<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The houses and\napartments where the rooms are rented have all you need inside a home, kitchen\nutensils, kitchen furniture, public services, in your room you have your bed,\nthe space to store your clothes. In many occasions they are residential units\nwhere you can make use of the swimming pool, parking, gym, courts and green\nareas, everything so that your stay is perfect and at the moment of arriving\nthe only thing you have to do is receive your keys.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">KNOW NEW LIFESTYLES<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">By living with people who are outside your nearby circle, who have customs and lifestyles different from yours and on many occasions that come from other countries you can meet new cultures, gastronomy, music and points of view. It is opening up to the world in one place. (<a href=\"https:\/\/getvico.com\/blog\/sharing-housing-vs-living-alone-colombia\/\">Share a housing with VICO or live alone?<\/a>)<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">CO-LIVING = INDEPENDENCE<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Having everything you\nneed for your life, having clear rules of coexistence and living with people\nwho have the same expectations as learning to live independently or who are\nalready fully responsible for themselves, it will be much easier to adopt this\nstyle of life. And at this point in life it is where you will understand that\nsimple everyday decisions have an important weight in your experience of living\nin a Co-living.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">LOW REAL ESTATE\nEXPENSES<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">One of the reasons for\nthe Co-living to be increasingly stronger are the high costs of living that are\ncurrently within the cities, either a rental of a property and much more when\nit is purchased. Finding a space that has all the comforts for you, in addition\nto being located near your critical points, whether it is a university or\nworkplace, is not a simple job and you must have areas where prices are too\nhigh.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Having a Co-living\nexperience these monthly costs are much easier to handle and are considerably\nreduced and also finding a room near your critical points can be a much simpler\nexperience.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT REDUCTION<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Today we live in the\nmidst of a strong environmental crisis, where global warming worsens, the\nconsumption of energy sources is higher and the consumption of fossil fuels\ndoes much more damage, for this reason the Co-living comes as an alternative to\nlife that has a positive impact on the environment, because the use of\nappliances such as refrigerators, ovens and washing machines is reduced. And\nbesides being able to choose a space that is close to your workplace you can\nchoose to mobilize in alternative means, walk or use public transport.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><a href=\"https:\/\/getvico.com\/blog\/en\/\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"800\" height=\"349\" src=\"https:\/\/getvico.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/12\/co-living-rooms-1.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-13216\" title=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/getvico.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/12\/co-living-rooms-1.jpg 800w, https:\/\/getvico.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/12\/co-living-rooms-1-300x131.jpg 300w, https:\/\/getvico.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/12\/co-living-rooms-1-768x335.jpg 768w, https:\/\/getvico.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/12\/co-living-rooms-1-350x153.jpg 350w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\" \/><\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">BETTER PROFITABILITY AS\nOWNER<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">If you are a homeowner and you are thinking of renting it, Co-living is also an option for you. You can increase your monthly profitability by renting the rooms to several tenants and not the entire space to one. It is important that you understand that these will stay for short, non-holiday times, that is, not one night or one week, if for periods of up to 6 months.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In Vico, we have a\ncomplete process for the accompaniment and advice of the owners to take them\nthrough a successful process to be housing managers and in this way<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>No more than two years ago we were surprised by the term co-working, a shared work space, with everything you need to do your day-to-day work.
