Great app
WARNING- do not waste your money
I have been using this app/site for almost one month now in an attempt to lease out the second en suite bedroom in my apartment. After uploading my listing with photos and a good amount of detail about the room, other flatmate (myself) and cost, location and so forth, I was expecting a reasonable amount of interest. This did not occur. Initially I thought it may have been my listing so I altered the listing- still nothing. I then looked more into other listings on the site both offering a room and seeking a share accommodation. I was shocked to see that some listings on here were weeks old and had not been removed or updated. It was then I realised why this is- so it appears in site reviews that it is popular because of the volume of listings. What it fails to divulge is that the listings are months old and still being touted as up to date. Do not waste your money!!
Housemates
It hasn’t been easy at times but with patience & persistence we’ve achieved a suitable result.
Can only use if you pay
Paid app
Handy but Frustrating
So many users do not read people’s profiles to see what they are looking for. You get so many messages from people just messaging everyone.
I am the landlord
Very helpful and easy to find very good tenant
Many Scammers On This App
There are many fake accounts on this app that will message you and ask for payment to “reactivate” your account. The link looks good and professional but do not pay. If you wait a short while the account will get blocked. The app is also very slow and sometimes does not load at all, other times will not load messages.
Have to pay to use
Great and easy to use.. however you can’t find a roommate without paying to use the full service, due to you being disabled from replying to interested occupants. So kinda pointless to advertise your property on unless you’re willing to pay the full fees.
Could be way less tedious…
I don’t think I have ever reviewed an app - but this first world problem drives me nuts. It’s the filtering options for flatmates. We should be able to set hard filters which remove all profiles that don’t fit. If I want to remove ‘X’ gender, I don’t want to scroll through the hundreds of them in the matches! Same with couples/groups, pets, and BUDGETS! Why on earth would I want to match with people who can’t afford the advertisement 😭😭😭 The only saving grace is that you can delete profiles from your matches, but it is teeedious to do when you start off because you may have hundreds of profiles to sort through. Just let us set hard filters. Please. The rental crisis and finding a suitable housemate is hard enough. End rant.
The best choice
This app is a pleasure to use. It’s more affordable and I got more promising results than the other major flatmate app
Bad - Many Bot
I purchased the app $30/mth which really expensive and i ask for a refund because i’m not satisfy with app. They cancel my plan right away and apple refuse to refund me. Honestly this bad is af
I thought its a free app
But its not a free app, u have to pay to message people. Thats just a waste of time! Just tell me before so im not wasting time making a profile!
Tenants: Warning on who you’ll be living with
The app is good and easy to use but without tenant review and homeowners background check may put tenants into a disadvantaged position. I lived with a woman who appeared to be kind and friendly at the beginning but turned out to be nasty and manipulative. Be careful with who you are going to live with!!!
Thank you
Really convenient, easy to operate and so usufull, thank you!!!
BE CAREFUL
When creating an account it will generate a very unusual random email with numbers and letters as well as a random password that you will some now need to record the email, but the password is not able to be found and you can not unsubscribe through the app only through internet browser - leaving it very difficult to unsubscribe and to be charged $22 at a minimum per “WEEK”… seems like a pretty well thought scam.
Search filters
It completely ignores any filters you add and you will end up deleting 90% of the “matches” you get as they don’t even come close you want you searched for.
Poor customer experience
I’ve been using this app on and off for around 6yrs to find new housemates and recently activated my profile again. I recall liking this app in the past, but currently the product owner seems to have lost their way, as the app now makes it really difficult to find genuine exact matches. I’m tempted to look around for other, less hard work, options. There’s something funky going on with the matching algorithm, as people who don’t match the weekly rent amount I’m asking are being matched as “100%” matches (I would argue that the weekly rent amount is a critical variable for both parties to match on). Additionally, there’s no way to sort by highest to lowest match, or to filter out people who aren’t 100% matches (which I would prefer to do & then work back to check some close matches if i need/want to consider others). Consequently my match feed is a confusing mess, and though the app says I have something like 170-180 matches, I can’t put my finger on true matches unless I weed through every single one of them (who has time or the inclination for that!) A couple of extra suggestions for you - Please enable me to filter out anybody who’s still active, but who hasn’t been online for days, so I don’t have to waste time opening up people’s profiles who have likely found a place & aren’t available. Other option could be to show last online date on people’s tiles on the matches page. If you could also configure the app to allow me to more easily filter in on people looking to move on or shortly after the date my room is listed as available, this would also make searching for the right match easier.
Searching for a flatmate
Flatmate finders is a great tool to use in order to find someone likeminded to share a flat in Sydney. Thank you
Mobile numbers
You need to upgrade your app so members are able to either cut & paste mobile numbers or at least to be able to call them
ok but why is this app lowkey homophobic
upon signing up there’s only two options for gender which was already a bit weird, but it’s housing together so I get that I guess, but then the app also asks for your sexuality. I was so genuinely confused as to why they would need this information until I realised that people could choose to not want to share a house with people who were lgbt. I get only wanting a house of males or females, but I don’t really think that who you’re dating should be able to have any impact on whether you have a roof over your head. It’s such a shame because everything else seemed really professional, but the homophobic undertones of the app really ruined it for me.
Great customer service
I have been using this app since I moved to Australia to find a place. Recently, I encountered an issue and reached out to customer service. They responded promptly and provided excellent assistance. Much appreciated, thanks
Useless
What can I expect from paying just to see replies? It’s not cheap But most of the people are inactive Doesn’t worth paying that much.
Adam
Love this service I have used it twice now and both times I have met some really good people who I feel I can trust. Great service would highly recommend.
Doesn’t help those in dire situations
My profile was deactivated because I had selected many locations where I would like to live. In a time of crisis and rising homelessness they want you to limit your search to a maximum of 5 suburbs. Absolutely ridiculous and incredibly tough for those desperate to find accommodation. Especially those of us with pets who are now considered even more undesirable. At this time many people are struggling and do not have the luxury of finding safe lodging close to their work. Therefore we have to use a wide net to find a home but this results in deactivation. Even some government and social services are promoting this resource when it actively excludes those that have limited options.
Sharehouse
Location specific. Matches to the demographics of whom we look for. Great resource to find our people.
Ripping off customers since 1987
This app is a rip off and charges EVERYONE to read messages whether the person sending it is a paid member or not. Reputable sites charge tenants to search for places it requires one party in a conversation to be paid but this app makes both sender and receiver to pay in order to read a message.
Love it
This app is my favorite one to find an accommodation, it’s really intuitive and easy to navigate ! Hopefully more people will put their accommodations on :)
Easy to use !
Simple, quick set-up, prompt responses, fair fee (monthly fee).
