We are committed to welcoming inclusive residents from all backgrounds who are excited to live with one another and build a household and a community together. You’ll need to meet the following requirements to lease with HomeRoom:

You can complete the entire application process online. To apply, please visit app.livehomeroom.com/apply and submit the following information:

Cosigners must have a U.S. based address and a credit score of 650 or higher as well as income that is three times the monthly rent.

Credit score requirements vary by state.

After your rental application has been approved, we will coordinate a roommate call with current residents of a home you are interested in. From there, you can coordinate a time to meet, set up time to video chat or ask them to take you on a video tour of the home. If, for whatever reason, it's not a mutual fit, HomeRoom will welcome you to chat with other roommates until you find your perfect home.

Yes, each house sets its own rules. However, to keep our homes happy, we have outlined our Homes Policies here.

While residents share the entire home, each resident has their own private bedroom within the home.

At HomeRoom, we place community at the core of our mission, and we firmly believe that strong communities begin within the home itself. This is why we meticulously crafted our roommate Meet & Greet process to empower our residents to thoroughly assess, engage in conversations, and acquaint themselves with potential roommates before making the decision to welcome them into their living space.

All rooms are single occupancy only. For visits, please review our visitor’s Policy here: Community Policies, Rules & Terms.

You have a few responsibilities as a roommate and a few little maintenance tasks.

We don’t allow pets in our homes. Should you require approval for an ESA, send all documentation via email (membersupport@livehomeroom).

Residents can choose lease terms between 3 and 24 months. Residents can also move freely to other homes in different cities without breaking their lease.

We offer virtual tours along with personalized insights on the home and neighborhood for all of our properties. We also offer in-person tours at select properties.
