Australia's oldest and most experienced
share accommodation service - since 1987

What's the best way to finda share house or flatmate in Australia?

Let's face it - finding the right home or flatmate isn't easy. Searching for suitable listings can be time consuming, especially if they're poorly written or you don't know whether they're still available. Also, most services don't let you control who can contact you, so you end up sorting through lots of unsuitable people and wasting time at unnecessary interviews.

So what's the solution? Whether you're a first time sharer or have years of experience, here are some things to look for when choosing a share accommodation service to help you find the right home or flatmate.

  • An easy way to find the right listings

    Look for a service with excellent matching so you find the right listings quickly and easily. Flatmate Finders asks questions in a clever way to pinpoint homes or flatmates that will interest you.

  • Listings that provide lots of information

    Making decisions about who to contact is a lot easier when you have all the information you need. You'll be impressed by the comprehensive profiles on Flatmate Finders, which include photos and a map.

  • Listings that are still available

    Contacting people that aren't available is a waste of your time and energy, so use a service that checks its listings. Flatmate Finders checks its listings weekly so you can be confident that everyone is still available.
