House share for the over 40s
A house share or flat share when you're older makes just as much sense financially and socially as when you're younger. We'll help you find a room to rent in a house share or flat share with like-minded mature housemates – for a long-term share, or as a Monday to Friday lodger.
It's people that matter ...
A successful flat share or house share isn't just about the room, it's also about the people you live with. In fact, in longer-term house sharing, who you live with can often be the most important thing. That goes for the live-in landlord as much as the housemate or lodger.
It is free to advertise a room to rent. You can detail not only the room details, but also the sort of lodger or housemate you are looking for.
Alternatively, if you are looking for a room, you can advertise yourself as a housemate. Tell others what you would be like as a housemate and what you're looking for.
We help live-in landlords find mature lodgers
"I am glad to say I found a tenant using your service. Very pleased with the people on this site. I wish I had known before about your site." Catherine, Dulwich
"Thanks for your help. Deciding to have a lodger was a bit daunting, so was pleased to find Cohabitas." Angie, Manchester
"Thank you for creating a website that’s for over 40s, it’s so refreshing. Especially when you keep reading ads that want either too much money or want movie nights on a Wednesday and Thai evenings, oh and 25-35". Nicola, London
“I wanted to say to you that I have been very happy with the two lodgers I have had through cohabitas and your whole way of doing things has worked very well for me. I’ll probably be looking again quite soon for a midweek lodger for 3 or 4 nights a week. Your information and advice messages are very helpful.”
Sarah, London.
