Build to Rent, a service-oriented approach to residential development
Build to Rent, often abbreviated to BTR, is emerging as an innovative model in the French real estate sector. This approach involves building residential properties specifically for rental, in contrast to traditional practice where developers focus primarily on sales. In France, this trend is gaining momentum, offering tenants an attractive alternative with modern, well-equipped accommodation. One of the main advantages of BTR is the guarantee of quality and associated services, often lacking in the traditional rental market.
Developers invest in top-of-the-range facilities, user-friendly common areas and professional management services (including network infrastructure), creating a high-quality residential living experience.
Managed WiFi at the heart of connected buildings
As a pioneer of managed WiFi in Build to Rent buildings (or "WiFi as a Service"), Wifirst offers its expertise and support to all BTR building managers in terms of connectivity and digitalization.
We firmly believe that WiFi goes far beyond its simple role of providing Internet access for residents. Our approach is to build a robust, secure and fully customized infrastructure, powering the various digital spaces and services within buildings.
Fiber optic Internet access for ultra-high-speed connections
Dedicated optical fiber is essential for connecting large coliving residences. With service guarantees such as 99.9% availability and symmetrical speeds, it offers both performance and reliability. These features are crucial for managing the growing demand for Internet use and avoiding the frustrations of an unreliable network.
Wifirst's pro fiber offer gives you the best prices thanks to our multi-operator network. What's more, relying on Wifirst for your Internet access and WiFi network guarantees optimum quality, with a single point of contact managing the entire process.
A virtual box for every family
Wifirst enables residents to connect to their own private WiFi, creating a home-like internet experience. Their various connected devices (smartphones, computers, consoles, smart TVs, Chromecasts, printers, smartwatches, smart speakers, etc.) can easily connect to the coliving residence's WiFi (without a captive portal) and communicate with each other.
Wifirst has achieved this by developing a technology based on the Room Area Network, while maintaining the physical architecture of collective WiFi.
