HousingAnywhere is an online rental platform that connects landlords and property managers with potential tenants. We help both sides achieve their renting goals — quick, online, and 100% safe.

What is HousingAnywhere, exactly?

We sometimes get asked, are you a real estate agency? The answer is no.

We’re a safe space where tenants can find their mid- to long-term homes and connect with landlords or property managers like you.

Think of us as a match-matching platform for the rental market. And as rental experts, we offer security and protection to landlords and property managers.

What services does HousingAnywhere offer?

HousingAnywhere connects landlords and property managers with tenants. We do not mediate between them. Once a booking is confirmed, you'll receive the tenant's email address and phone number. You can then confirm the final details of the booking, such as their arrival time and key collection.

HousingAnywhere will transfer the first month's rent to you 48 hours after your tenant's move-in date, provided your place matches the listing.

We are not responsible for:

Rental agreement

It's your responsibility to provide the tenant with a rental agreement. Sample contracts are available on our Legal page.

Check-in and key transfer

Check-in and key transfer are to be coordinated between the tenant and landlord.

Other responsibilities not related to booking

May include but is not limited to: managing fixes, cleaning, insurance, etc.

Is HousingAnywhere free?

You can list your place on HousingAnywhere and message tenants for free. We charge a small, one-time commission fee of approximately 25% of the first month’s rent per booking. This commission fee is automatically deducted from your payout.
