Sublets · Roommates · Lease takeovers
Find a roommate you'll actually like.
Need a roommate or a sublet? Submet matches you with sublets and roommates on move-in dates, budget and how you really live. Browse summer sublets and lease takeovers, or post your room in two minutes.
Free to join. Only the first 100 in each city become Founding Members
Find someone who lives like you. Maybe your next best friend.
Most roommate horror stories aren't about rent. They're about the night owl stuck with the early riser, or the neat freak living with the mess.
Run your Vibe Check to see what you have in common with every listing, then talk first before anyone signs anything.
Know it's the right fit before you move in, not after.
We make the hard part easy
- 1

Rooms and people filtered by your dates, budget and city. Shared vibes light up.
- 3
Meet someone real
Message them on Submet. Everyone's verified by school email or phone.
The stuff every other roommate app forgot.
Vouches, not credit checks
Teammates, past roommates and coaches vouch for you, so strangers have a reason to trust you before you meet.
Squad Up
Team up with 2 or 3 people who fit, then lease a whole place together. One post can fill a 4-bedroom.
Video room tours
Every room gets a 15-second video tour. Scammers can't film a room they don't have.
Take my room. And my stuff.
Leaving a bed, desk or couch behind? Bundle it with the room so nobody has to haul furniture across town.
Lease takeovers
Need out of your lease for good? Find someone to take over the whole thing, not just a few months.
Landlord approval in one tap
Submet writes a polite request asking your landlord for permission to sublet. The most awkward step, handled.
The roommate agreement
Once you match, settle quiet hours, guests, chores and bills in two minutes.
Share it to your story
One tap turns your listing into a ready-to-post Instagram story with your vibes, dates and price.
Submet Nights
Members-only parties and mixers. Meet a future roommate in person, and keep coming after you've moved in. Your Submet profile is your ticket.
Not moving yet?
Join now anyway. Future you will thank you.
Most people find out they need a room with two weeks' notice. Be ready before that happens.

Why I built Submet
A move should be exciting. Not stressful.
I'm Landry, a Division 1 baseball player at the College of Charleston. I've had my share of bad roommate situations, and every one of them added stress I didn't need. I lost money and a lot of time dealing with it, time I should have spent on school and the game.
You should feel confident you're moving in with people who are a great fit, and you shouldn't have to wait until you get there to find out. That's why I built Submet.
Questions, answered.
How do I find a summer sublet in Charleston?+
Join the waitlist with your dates, budget and vibes. When Charleston unlocks you can browse summer sublets near College of Charleston, Charleston Southern, MUSC and The Citadel, or post your own room for the summer.
Is Submet free?+
Joining the waitlist is free. Browsing listings and running your Vibe Check will be free too.
Do I have to be a student?+
No. Students get a Verified Student badge with their school email, and everyone else verifies a phone number. Interns, nurses, new grads and anyone between leases are welcome.
How do you keep out scams?+
Every post is checked by a real person before it goes live, and fake or suspicious listings come down fast. Never send money before you have seen the place and signed with the landlord.
Can I sublet if my lease doesn't mention it?+
Most leases need the landlord to approve a sublet. Ask yours first. Submet will ask you to confirm you have permission before your room goes live.
What is a lease takeover?+
If you need out of your lease for good, someone takes it over for the rest of the term instead of just a few months. Your landlord has to approve it, and Submet can write that request for you.
When does my city open?+
Each city unlocks once it hits a set number of sign-ups, enough that you will have real matches on day one. Any city can unlock, and every sign-up counts, so invite your friends to get yours there faster. We will email you the moment your city goes live.
What's a Vibe Check?+
Five picks that describe how you live, like early riser, coffee drinker or very clean. Every listing shows the vibes you have in common.
