PODCAST | What is holding co-living back? 

Regulation aimed at better defining the co-living product and giving local authorities greater confidence in the burgeoning sub-sector’s business model is required for the market to grow, according to industry experts. 

Colin Shenton, chief executive of investor the Shenton Group – which owns co-living provider Oppidan Life – and Andrew Purdon, head of co-living transactions at CBRE, joined reporter Dan Whelan to thrash out the issues currently preventing co-living from really taking off, and discuss what can be done to break down those barriers.
