Colette is a trusted intermediary that offers a number of guarantees in its operation for the smooth functioning of your cohabitation.

  • โœ”๏ธ A community of trustworthy hosts: we verify and validate the eligibility of each host profile and the accommodation offered. We have in-depth discussions with each of them to get to know them and have already met several.

  • ๐Ÿš€ Simplified tenant application: we do not ask for a guarantor or deposit. In very exceptional cases, some hosts may request a deposit, but this will be specified on the few relevant listings. We simply ask for proof of identity, a certificate of enrollment or employment contract, a VISA for young people coming from abroad, and a short introduction video.

  • ๐Ÿ“ Administrative support: Colette provides a lease agreement and rent receipts.

  • ๐Ÿ’ธ Simplified and secure rent payments: Colette monitors and manages rent payments directly to the hosts. We use Stripe, a globally recognized secure online payment platform.

  • ๐Ÿ› ๏ธ Insurance partnership in case of material damage: the tenant can request our AXA insurance to compensate their host. Below the threshold of โ‚ฌ200, the compensation is the responsibility of the tenant. Therefore, there is no need to take out home insurance. But be aware that this insurance does not include liability insurance. Each individual must have separate liability insurance.

  • ๐Ÿ’ฐ Possibility to apply for housing assistance (APL) from the CAF: the majority of accommodations at Colette are eligible. Colette helps you with your application by providing all the necessary information.

  • ๐Ÿ’Œ Tailored customer service: at Colette, we are committed to ensuring that each cohabitation goes smoothly and that this experience allows you to share great moments every day. We are available to support and advise you promptly. You can contact us at: cohabitants@colette.club or directly through the Colette chatbot.

  • ๐Ÿ” A turnkey service: once you find accommodation, you have a monthly subscription of โ‚ฌ38 for the duration of the lease to ensure the quality of the Colette support.

๐Ÿ–‡๏ธ I would like to have more information when I am in cohabitation.
