@kelechi Thanks for the welcome and for the feedback! The site is up and links are working on my end, so let me know if you are still not getting through.

@Graeme Hey Graeme - That is an interesting question because there is certainly the most obvious of groups (the recent graduate), but from my initial research there are other profiles such as the couple that may want to live with another or the professional that can live on their own, but would not mind expanding their network while living better and saving money. Others include communities for different languages. I am working on the concept of searching within micro-communities or spaces as I'm currently calling it. So, I agree with your point on more diverse images, but do you know of any resources for stock images? I spent hours searching on a few sites just to settle on that (free) image as it did convey a certain feel, but its worth looking again.

Hey all!

Excited about this community, I am still in early “friends and family” private testing phase, but felt that I can share with this community (even with my less polished product). I am working on a product to connect roommates before a lease is signed. Looking for feedback on UX, design tips, what's critically missing and of course anything else too, so check it out even if you are not looking for a roommate or are in the NYC area.

The two are purposely not linked together.

I used bubble.is a no code app builder, which is awesome, but does have its limitations.

I won’t say much more since with great design everything should be self-explanatory, but definitely feel free to message me here or in my app for a conversation.

Look forward to your comments!
