Every month, a great variety of events are organized for or by members - yoga classes, the Management Retreat, workshops, after-work drinks, or simply a pleasant dinner. Every month, they deliver breakfast to every home to make sure their members can spend some time together.

A property management ambassador is a peer-elected member who wants to be more involved in the community and is in charge of welcoming new housemates and giving their team feedback about their experience! Each house has at least one ambassador and they are all part of an amazing community. They participate in ambassador events and have first access to certain events and a first look at upcoming projects + initiatives.

You can complete it while chilling comfortably on your couch, at your own pace.

They do their best to send you houses that are the best fit for your personality and preferences. However, these options may also be sent to another member so act fast.

If it's a pre-booking, they can invite you for a tour before you sign your lease. Otherwise, you cannot visit before joining the house, but thanks to their virtual tours you will be able to discover all the common spaces of the house. They have a virtual house tour with pictures and a video tour. The video will give you a very good overview of all the rooms in the house. If you have specific questions, their Community Manager will be happy to answer them for you.
