Colivers need to do their due diligence when moving into a new home and what better way to do so than through a platform that curates and rates these coliving spaces according to peer reviews and interests.

For both colivers’ sake and the sector’s, we need to know which platforms are the best ones to use, and this category will aim to do just that and narrow them down to award the best-in-class coliving marketplaces and aggregators.
