“When a prior co-living specific management company dissolved, Meritus was there to pick up the pieces and having a full service company involved has been a breath of fresh air.”

Cities are less affordable than ever due to the rising cost of urban living. Concurrently, data shows that isolation is pervasive due to increased digital interaction. Both phenomena can be addressed through thoughtful, modern, shared living spaces.

Our co-living management services help people live with greater connection, creativity, and sense of purpose. Our team facilitates the creation of inclusive communities where people can create meaningful connections and authentic relationships. Our team supports a living experience from a human-centered perspective. One that considers every aspect and touchpoint of shared living.

The Meritus team includes specialists that understand the enhanced tenant relationship and conflict resolution needs that make operating a co-living asset a unique practice.
