Your safety and comfort are our top priorities! To ensure this, we ask all our new members to complete a background and credit check, as well as electronically sign a separate residency agreement. Just a heads up, you'll need to share your ID and Social Security Number (for those in the US) with us. We'll shoot over the agreement right after you book, and we kindly ask you to sign it quickly to guarantee your room. For your credit, we're looking for scores above 550-650, depending on your city and we'll need a clean criminal record too (this doesn't apply to DC). If you meet all the requirements, you will receive a rental agreement, which you need to sign within 24 hours of receiving it.

Frequently Asked Questions

Top Questions

Safety is the number one priority for us. Every member is fairly vetted and goes through extensive criminal and background checks, as well as a 3-step approval process that includes in-person interviews with our team. A set of strict, yet reasonable rules is enforced in all of our homes. Our members tend to be a mix of creative, hard-working professionals and students. Most members are moving within the same city, though we have many tenants from around the US and world.
Will I have privacy?

In shared homes, each resident has their own private bedroom, and all residents in the home share the kitchen, living areas, bathrooms, etc.
