How SpareRoom works

Use us to fill a room or find one. Find roommates you click with – the people who make sharing amazing.

Tell people what you're looking for

Tell people what you're looking for

Create an ad and let potential roommates find you. Tell them you've got a room to fill or you want to find one. Talk about the kind of apartment share you're looking for- are you looking to party every night, or just birthdays and holidays?

Add photos and a video

Bring your ad to life by adding photos and a video. It gives people a real sense of who you are or what your room's like, far more so than anything you'll write in your ad. It's quick and easy - you can do it straight from your mobile, tablet or laptop.
