Browse the rooms on this page, save the ones you like and message the lister directly. You can also create a free profile so people with a spare room can find you. Always inspect the room (in person or by video) and never pay a bond before you have seen it and signed an agreement.

Can I message listers for free?

Do tenancy laws cover share houses?

It depends on the setup. If you are on the lease or rent from a head tenant, you are usually covered by your state's tenancy laws. If you rent a room from an owner who lives there, you are usually a lodger or boarder, and standard tenancy laws may not apply, so agree the house rules, notice period and bond in writing. Our free roommate agreement can help.

Is Room Buddy free to use?

Yes. Posting a room, creating a profile and messaging are free. Optional paid plans add more listings, a Featured tag and priority placement in search.

Room Buddy is dedicated to simplifying the search for flatmates and rooms for rent. Our platform is designed to make the process smooth and stress-free.
