Frequently asked questions

What is shared accommodation?

Shared accommodation, or a HMO is where a number of individuals live within the same property but have their own personal, private bedroom, but have use of shared spaces within the accommodation which will include communal areas, bathrooms and kitchens.

โ€‹Colony Living is your go to professional and student letting agency in Swansea.

Furnished – Being able to move straight in to a property as a student or young professional without having to buy your own bed or bedroom furniture is an advantage that our tenants love.
