Full Circle Living

Housing bills are heavy. You don’t carry them alone.

Full Circle Living is coed shared housing for people who want to spend less on rent and utilities and meet new friends along the way. We work with each person, and we are all in this together.

Questions? Call (203) 605-4444 or email 100jmgroup@gmail.com.

The bills that weigh on you most

Rent, utilities, internet, furniture, and a big move-in cost all hit at once. We pull them into one payment so you can plan.

High rent

Sharing a home can cost far less than renting a place alone. Your price is based on the area and room availability, and we work with each person.

Utility and internet bills

Electric, gas, and internet are included in your payment. No splitting bills, no chasing roommates, no surprise spikes.

Paying on your schedule

Pay weekly or every two weeks, online, so your housing payment lines up with your paycheck.

Starting from scratch

Not everyone has furniture. If you need it, we can furnish your room. If you already have your own, you keep it.

Everyday stress

Need a hand? We offer simple shopping and simple cleaning for an extra price, agreed before we start.

Feeling alone

We create an atmosphere of getting to know new friends. A good household feels like a team.

A clear written agreement

Conduct rules, payment terms, and consequences are in writing before anyone moves in.

Your own bedroom

If you ever feel unsafe, call 911. For anything else, tell us right away and we will act on it.

What makes Full Circle different

We create an atmosphere of getting to know new friends. Living with other people works best when everyone agrees on how to treat each other, so every Circlemate signs our core values before moving in. We are all in this together.

Respect

Every Circlemate, of any gender, background, or belief, gets the same privacy, dignity, and consideration. Closed doors stay closed. Shared spaces stay shared.

Empathy

People have hard days, long shifts, and tight months. We talk early, listen first, and solve problems before they become fights.

Camaraderie

A good household feels like a team. We cover the basics for each other, share the work fairly, and celebrate the small wins.

House rules

Clear rules keep a coed home comfortable and safe for everyone. Every Circlemate agrees to these before moving in.

Coed living

  • Knock first. A closed bedroom door means privacy, and no one enters without permission.
  • Consent comes first. No unwanted comments, touching, messages, or pressure.
  • Dress appropriately in shared spaces, and lock the bathroom door when you use it.
  • Guests need the household’s agreement and a heads-up. You are responsible for your guests.
  • Relationships between Circlemates are personal. They must never make housemates uncomfortable or unsafe.
  • Quiet hours are 10 p.m. to 7 a.m.
  • Everyone shares the cleaning of kitchen, bathrooms, and common areas.
  • If something feels wrong, tell us. We take every report seriously.

Cameras

  • Cameras are only in shared areas such as entrances and hallways.
  • There are never cameras in bedrooms, bathrooms, or anywhere you expect privacy.
  • Cameras record video only, with no audio.
  • We tell every Circlemate in writing where cameras are.
  • Footage is used for safety and security, reviewed only when something happens, and kept for a limited time.
  • Circlemates may not cover, move, or disable cameras, and may not record each other or install their own cameras in shared spaces.

Questions people ask

What fees will I pay?

Your rent, paid weekly or biweekly. The first month paid in advance. And service fees only for extras you choose, like furnishing, cleaning, or shopping, agreed in writing first. We do not charge hidden fees.

How much does a room cost?

It depends on the area and which rooms are available. We work with each person to set a price, and it goes into your written agreement.

Why weekly or biweekly payments?

Many people get paid every week or two. Paying on the same schedule makes it easier to plan and avoid falling behind.

Do I need to sign a lease?

Yes. Circlemates sign the main lease with the landlord and the Full Circle agreement.

What is checked in the background check?

An approved screening company runs it, and you get a copy of the report. Any screening fee is limited to the actual cost, as Connecticut law allows.

Are there cameras in the home?

Only in shared areas such as entrances and hallways, for safety. Never in bedrooms or bathrooms, and never with audio. We tell every Circlemate in writing where they are.

How does coed living work?

Everyone has a private bedroom and shares the common spaces. Our house rules cover privacy, consent, guests, bathrooms, and quiet hours so everyone feels comfortable and safe.

Why do you need my ID, and how is it used?

We use your driver’s license or state ID to confirm you are who you say you are before approval. It is used only for screening and is not shown to other Circlemates.

Is the room furnished?

Not always. It depends on your needs. We can furnish your room if you need it.

Is parking included?

Only some rooms come with parking. Ask when you apply.

What if I fall behind on payments?

Talk to us early. We work with each person. Late fees apply only as allowed by Connecticut law.

What happens if someone breaks the rules?

Anyone who breaks the contract may be banned and removed through the lawful process required in Connecticut, and we may take further legal action.

Circlemate agreement

By entering this contract, you agree to the terms below. Read them before you apply. In this agreement, a “Circlemate” is anyone who lives in a Full Circle Living home.

1. Our promise

By entering this contract, we at Full Circle Living commit to treating the safety of our clients as a top priority. Every Circlemate has the right to feel safe in the home, in the shared spaces, and around the other Circlemates.

2. Rent and payments

Rent is based on the area and room availability, and we work with each Circlemate to set an amount that is written into that Circlemate’s agreement. Rent is paid weekly or biweekly, on the same day each cycle, online through the Full Circle Living website. Late fees apply only as allowed by Connecticut law. The first month’s rent is paid in advance before move-in and is not refunded once your stay begins.

3. What is included

Your room, electricity, gas, internet, and use of the kitchen and common areas. Utilities are included up to a fair-use level. Extreme use may be discussed with the household. Furnishing, simple shopping, simple cleaning, and clothes washing are available when needed, at a price agreed with the Circlemate before each service. Service fees are separate from rent, are agreed in writing, and are charged only for services actually provided.

4. Main lease

Each Circlemate also signs the main lease with the landlord and follows all of its rules. Where this agreement and the main lease differ, the main lease controls. Approval depends on a satisfactory background check, which each applicant agrees to in the application.

5. Safety and conduct

  • No violence, threats, stalking, or intimidation.
  • No harassment, unwanted contact, or discrimination of any kind, including based on gender, race, religion, sexual orientation, disability, or national origin.
  • Consent and privacy come first. Bedrooms are private, and no one enters another Circlemate’s room without permission.
  • No illegal activity, weapons, or illegal drugs on the property.
  • Overnight guests need the agreement of the household and may not stay long term.
  • Keep shared spaces clean and noise reasonable, especially at night.

6. Coed living rules

  • Circlemates of all genders share the home. Everyone gets the same respect, privacy, and safety.
  • Knock before entering any bedroom. No one enters another Circlemate’s room without permission.
  • Consent is required for any physical contact or personal contact. Unwanted comments, touching, messages, or pressure are not allowed.
  • Dress appropriately in shared spaces and lock the bathroom door when in use.
  • Overnight guests need the household’s agreement and advance notice. Circlemates are responsible for their guests.
  • Relationships between Circlemates are personal and must never make anyone uncomfortable or unsafe. A breakup does not change a Circlemate’s duty to follow these rules and pay on time.
  • Quiet hours are 10 p.m. to 7 a.m. Circlemates share the cleaning of common areas.

7. Cameras

Full Circle Living may use video cameras in shared areas such as entrances and hallways for safety and security. Cameras are never placed in bedrooms, bathrooms, or any place where a person expects privacy, and they do not record audio. Circlemates are told in writing where cameras are located. Footage is reviewed only when there is a safety, security, or conduct concern, kept for a limited time, and shared only with the people involved or with law enforcement when needed. Circlemates may not cover, move, or disable cameras, may not record other Circlemates, and may not install their own cameras in shared spaces.

8. Breaking this contract

Anyone who breaks this contract will be banned from Full Circle Living. We will end their agreement and remove them from the home through the lawful process required in Connecticut. We may also take further legal action to recover unpaid rent, damages, or costs. In an emergency, Circlemates should call 911 first.

9. Moving out

Circlemates give at least 30 days’ written notice before moving out, leave the room clean, and return their keys. Circlemates pay for any unpaid rent and for damage beyond normal wear and tear, and we provide an itemized list of any charges.

10. Core values agreement

Every Circlemate commits to respect, empathy, and camaraderie, as described in the core values above and in the signature section of the application.
