About this app

Need to rent a room? Take the ideal flatmate test to match up with your perfect flatmate or flatshare today! Our unique algorithm determines your ideal sort of home and find flatmates you’ll love, based on your preferences. We put personality at the heart of the flatsharing experience because we believe flatsharing isn’t simply about finding a room — it’s about choosing the right group of people to share a home with.

With 3000+ spare rooms to rent uploaded every month all over the UK – all of which pass our tight security checks – say hello to your next great houseshare.

Or, looking to let a room? We’ll help you find tenants who are the right fit and you can manage your enquiries straight from the ideal flatmate app. Room rental made simple!

MATCH WITH YOUR IDEAL FLATMATES

Love partying? Hate partying? Does a weekly bin rota rev your engine, or do you like a more laid-back approach? In to communal meals, or would you rather do your own thing?
Our Matching Quiz asks 20 questions to gauge your approach to factors like cleanliness and orderliness, social openness and social flexibility, and matches you with like-minded flatmates in your area.

FIND THE PERFECT HOUSESHARE

You’re also free to work it out for yourself! Use our search function to find compatible flatmates and houseshares in your area, apply filters and direct message prospective flatmates. We’ll send you notifications so you never miss an opportunity to connect with people.

GROUP RENTING FEATURE

Say a landlord’s letting a property that’s right up your (metaphorical) street. It’s a three-bedroom, but all your friends are happily settled elsewhere. Our Group feature allows you to express interest in properties and see other flat-seekers who have too — then all that’s left to do is send them a message and arrange a viewing.
