Branching into ‘flexliving’
Urban Campus, known for its premium coliving spaces across Spain, is venturing into the ‘flexliving’ market with the introduction of Urban Campus Aravaca. This project marks a significant milestone in the company’s strategy, highlighting its expansion into a rapidly growing market niche. Supported by Batipart Europe as an investment partner, this property will be Urban Campus’ eighth asset in Madrid.
What is flexliving?
Flexliving is a residential concept that offers housing options flexible enough to accommodate varying lengths of stay. This type of living arrangement typically allows for stays as short as a few days or weeks, referred to as “short-term stays”. It also offers “long-term stays” as long as several months or even years. The key aspect of flex living is its ability to bridge the gap between a hotel’s short-term convenience and an apartment’s longer-term stability.
Residents of flexliving can enjoy furnished living spaces with flexible lease terms, avoiding the commitment required by traditional year-long leases. This makes flexliving ideal for people undergoing life transitions, such as relocating for work, studying for short courses, or engaging in extended travel.
