RoommateHQ

Inspiration

Finding roommates is one of the challenging things to go through during college and after graduation when starting a new job. It's very important to find the right lifestyle match for your roommate. However, it's quite of a time consuming process. People normally post on Facebook, Discord, etc the same information over and over, and it's not efficient.
