Cohousing in Málaga

Our cohousing cooperative

Not everything is buying or renting. There are private alternatives that are revolutionizing the way of living and aging such as housing cooperatives, a method of living in the community while enjoying the advantages of privacy. A model that is developing more and more in Spain, Andalusia and of course, Malaga.

Live and share with a group of diverse people a shared space, a community of apartments, flats or associated private houses and with services and common areas to share. A concept originally from Denmark that has been implanted in Spain for a few years, allowing the individuality to live collectively.

In Puerto de la Luz Residential, we are a clear example of this, since we define ourselves as a cooperative of cession regime of the right of use of housing, better known as cohousing,coovivienda or collaborative housing, among others. In this way, our cooperative members acquire the right to use the house and common spaces, while the ownership of the property belongs to the cooperative. This right to use can be indefinite, transmitted or inherited.

With collective property, we gain by reducing costs, consumption, and ecological impacts, by sharing resources, spaces, and services. There are benefits that a single person could not pay, but when they share it with the community, they are viable. Our cohousing facilitates coexistence and cooperation among residents, as well as the centralization of equipment and services, which ends up providing social, economic and environmental benefits.
