How can we help you?

Trowers & Hamlins, alongside a brilliant group of collaborators led by urban regeneration and masterplanning-focused architectural practice Ackroyd Lowrie, have launched the How-To Handbook for Co-Living.

This step-by-step guide is designed to demystify the process of delivering a successful Co-Living development. Rather than revisiting the concept of Co-Living, which has now firmly established itself as a viable and enduring sub-sector within the Rental Residential market, the Handbook focuses on practical delivery at scale and to the quality required for both planning and funding.

How To…

  • Select a Co-Living Site

  • Get Planning for Co-Living

  • Design a Co-Living Scheme

  • Service Co-Living

  • Value & Underwrite a Co-Living Scheme

  • Construct a Co-Living Scheme

  • Market a Co-Living Scheme

  • Build a Community

  • Exit a Co-Living Scheme

This is not a theoretical exploration but a hands-on, cradle-to-grave guide informed by leading voices across the sector. The Handbook features invaluable insights from planners, operators, designers, engineers, legal professionals, and funders, addressing the complex realities of developing high-quality Co-Living schemes in today's dynamic urban environment.

We’re proud to have collaborated with some of the most respected names in the industry. In addition to Trowers & Hamlins and Ackroyd Lowrie, contributors to the Handbook include: Savills, DTZ Investors, Harris Associates, Conscious Co-Living, Capital Economics, Urban Land Institute, Halcyon Development Partners, Living for Life, Applied Energy, and DP9.
