Need a roommate? Find one you'll actually like.
Submet matches you with roommates by move-in date, budget and how you really live. Run your Vibe Check, see what you have in common, and talk before anyone signs anything.
Why finding a roommate is so hard
Most people looking for a roommate end up in the same places: a Facebook group, a group chat, a Craigslist post or a friend of a friend. You get a name, a budget and maybe a photo. You don't find out they stay up until 4 a.m. or never do dishes until after you move in.
Most roommate problems aren't about rent. They're about lifestyle: the night owl stuck with the early riser, the neat freak living with the mess. Submet puts that front and center.
How Submet helps you find a roommate
- Run your Vibe Check. Pick the five things that describe how you live, like early riser, gym rat, very clean or night owl.
- Set your dates, budget and city. You only see people and rooms that actually fit.
- See what you have in common. Shared vibes light up on every profile.
- Read their vouches. Past roommates, teammates and coaches can vouch for people, so you know someone is legit.
- Talk first. Message on Submet before you share a number or sign a lease.
