Co-Living: The Ultimate Hack for DC Living

Nest DC

Let's talk about the elephant in the room: living in DC is expensive. But what if we told you there's a way to live in some of DC's most vibrant neighborhoods, in beautifully furnished spaces, with ALL utilities included, for way less than a typical studio? Enter co-living, your wallet's new best friend.

What Exactly is Co-Living? 
Think of it as the grown-up version of communal living – minus the shower shoes and questionable kitchen situations. You get your own private bedroom while sharing thoughtfully designed common spaces with like-minded individuals.

The best part? Everything's included. And we mean everything:

✓ Chic, modern furnishings (save that $400+ furniture bill!)
✓ All utilities covered (no more splitting bills)
✓ Weekly cleaning service (yes, really!)
✓ High-speed internet (work from home approved)
✓ On-call maintenance (because stuff happens)
✓ Laundry facilities (no more quarters!)

The Numbers Don't Lie 
Average DC studio average total monthly cost: $2,828
Nest DC Co-living average total monthly cost: $1,800

That's $1,000+ back in your pocket each month. Just think of all the happy hours you could attend!
