Mutual interest only

Four ways SubSwap works for you.

Looking for a sublease

Verified students only. No landlords, no bots.

Posting a sublease

You control who messages you. Pre-screened, verified students only.

Finding a roommate

Matched on sleep schedule, cleanliness, budget, and location. You see why you match.

Filling a spare room

Get matched with compatible, pre-screened students. No more hoping for the best.

What makes us different.

University email verification

A valid university email is the only way in. Every user is verified — no exceptions.

Compatibility-first ranking

Results ranked by compatibility and fit — not just recency. You see what actually matches you.

Explainable trust scores

Trust scores you can read. Verification, reviews, and response rate — shown clearly, no black box.

Live market intelligence

Real data from verified student transactions. See what listings are actually going for across Atlantic Canada.

Students are on their own in a market that was never built for them.

The platforms students rely on — Kijiji, Facebook Marketplace — have zero identity verification and zero trust infrastructure. You're searching blind, messaging strangers, and hoping nothing goes wrong.
