Literally, if you live in a Perch House, you will live with 1-3 other women age 55+ who have been vetted and matched together for compatibility. With Perch Houses, co-living is a means of intentional community living. We think that for the right people, living together is better than living alone.

It's not the right solution for everyone, but for many people co-living can be an attractive option for the following reasons:

1. High-quality housing for less than an apartment: Perch Houses are incredible homes for less than the average price of a 1-bedroom apartment. Plus, unlike many of them, we don't have any hidden fees.
2. Living together is better than living alone: At Perch Houses, we believe in the power of community to improve quality of life. We work hard to ensure a great housemate experience and believe that the supportive relationships developed through community living can change lives.
3. All-inclusive pricing with no hidden fees: Rent at Perch Houses doesn't just get you a beautiful place to live. Our rent also includes utilities, high-speed WiFi, and a smart security system. We also make housekeeping and yard care services available on-demand! With Perch, you get all the benefits of spacious home living in a single family home, with none of the hassle!

In a Perch House, there's always only 1 resident per bedroom. So in a four bedroom house, where each resident has a private bedroom and bathroom, there would only ever be 4 residents at most.

Compatibility is at the heart of what we do and care about at Perch Houses. We understand that a harmony in your house is key to a positive experience. Our compatibility matching process is designed with this in mind, using a comprehensive approach to bring together housemates who are likely to form a cohesive living community. Here's how we do it:

‍

1. Background Check: Every Perch Houses resident submits a thorough background check to verify identity, safety, and co-living fit.
2. Compatibility Quiz: Every potential housemates completes a 20-point compatibility quiz that assesses everything from lifestyle, to personality, to values, to opinions, and more
3. Compatibility Analysis: Using the information from the quiz, we employ a proprietary algorithm to analyze compatibility factors. This includes matching individuals based on their preferences for daily routines, values, political ideologies, and social habits.
4. Personal Interviews: Beyond the algorithm, our team speaks with every person that applies to live in a Perch House. This allows us to delve deeper into the nuances of personality and lifestyle that an algorithm might miss, ensuring a more nuanced match.
5. Meet & Greet: If everything looks good at this point, then it's time for a connection with your potential housemates! We'll set you up with a chat and you can take it from there.
6. Continuous Support: Even after you move-in, Perch Houses remains engaged with our communities, offering support and mediation to address any concerns that arise. Our goal is to foster a positive and supportive living environment for every housemate.

‍

Through this multi-faceted approach, we aim to ensure that all Perch housemates enjoy a compatible, comfortable, and enriching community living experience.

We also developed a proprietary compatibility quiz that assesses housemate fit in areas like lifestyle, values, opinions, and housemate preferences. Additionally, housemates collaborate on and sign a Community Plan, a document that outlines the boundaries and guidelines for relationships in the house. Finally, if all else fails, we're here to help! Contact us anytime and we'll be happy to help.
