Finding the right house is important — but finding the right people to live with? That’s everything.

Whether you're moving to a new city, starting a new job, or simply tired of housemates who aren't your vibe, HOMEE’s Buddy-Up Listings are here to flip the script.

👯‍♀️ What’s a Buddy-Up Listing?

A Buddy-Up Listing is a way of saying: "I don’t have a place yet, but I’d love to find like-minded people to team up and find one together."

Think of it as your housemate dating profile. Instead of wading through room listings and then trying to vibe-check the housemates, you start by finding your ideal people — and then house-hunt together.

It’s about creating your ideal living situation from the get go

Why You Need a Buddy-Up Listing in Your Life

Let’s be honest: mismatched housemates can make home feel anything but homely. A Buddy-Up Listing helps you prioritise compatibility from the start.

• Find Your Vibe Tribe: Whether you're a chill introvert, who loves a bit of space and peace, a work-from-homer, a night owl who loves a late-night chat, unbothered by a bit of mess, or the type who’s up early on Saturdays (even with a hangover) — your listing shows people exactly who you are and if the vibes match** 🤝

• Share the Search Load: House-hunting alone can be sooo draining. Buddying up means double the brainpower, research, shared decision-making, and viewings. Teamwork = less stress 🧠

• Align Your Budgets & House Goals: It’s way easier to talk money before you fall in love with a place. A Buddy-Up Listing lets you match with people who share your budget, location goals, and living style, so you're on the same page from day one 💸

• Build a Home, Not Just a House: Movie nights, Sunday brunches, spontaneous wine and chats — when you vibe with your housemates, the place becomes home. That’s the Buddy-Up dream 🏡

How to Create Your Perfect Buddy-Up Listing

Ready to find your platonic soulmate(s)? Here's how to make your Buddy-Up Listing shine:

• Be Authentic: This is your chance to really showcase who you are. What are your hobbies? What’s your work schedule like? Are you a social butterfly out most nights or more of an introvert and like some peace and space? Do you like things kept super clean and tidy, or are unbothered by mess? The more honest you are, the better chance you have of attracting someone who truly is your vibe 🌟

• Set Your Non-Negotiables: Are pets a deal-breaker (or a must-have)? Do you need a quiet space to work from home? Do you need someone who won't leave a dirty plate out over night? **Be clear about what you absolutely need and what you absolutely can't tolerate (of course all in a good-spirited way!) ** 🚫

• Describe Your Ideal Housemate: Paint a picture of the person (or people!) you'd love to share a home with. Are they tidy? Respectful? Ready to be best-friends? Up for a weekly board game night? 👯‍♀️

• Outline Your Housing Goals: What kind of property are you looking for? Which areas are you considering? What’s your ideal move-in date and budget? The more specific you are, the more efficiently you can connect with potential housemates who share similar goals 🎯
