How it works

Find a home. Find roommates. Or let a housing option find you.

Alongside traditional listing search, RoomUpItalia gives you two more tools: you can meet people looking for compatible housing and, if you choose to receive proposals, owners with a relevant offer can reach you.

Create your search Search listings

1. Create and publish your search

Describe what you need: city or area, budget, period, housing type and the other information that makes your search clear.

Create your search

An active search, not a forgotten form

Your search becomes the basis for comparing listings, finding potential roommates and, if you allow it, helping owners understand whether one of their housing options may be relevant.

Keep it up to date

Area, budget, move-in date and needs can change. Updating your search prevents you from appearing for needs you no longer have or receiving proposals that are no longer useful.

2. Find housing and roommates

You can keep browsing listings or enable roommate search to discover people looking for compatible housing in the same area.

Discover roommate search

Listings compatible with your search

RoomUpItalia compares your published search with available housing options and helps highlight listings consistent with what you specified, without preventing you from browsing other listings freely.

Find a roommate

When you enable the feature, you only see profiles that chose to join roommate search. You can assess elements such as city, budget and period and send a contact request without making your contact details public.

3. Let owners find you

If you allow proposals, an owner with a published and available property can find you among compatible tenants and present a housing option.

Discover tenant search

The owner can search for you

Owners review relevant profiles for one of their available properties. They do not see an unrestricted list: your profile must have a valid search and you must have chosen to receive proposals.

Receive and assess the proposal

The proposal shows the housing option the owner wants to present. You can review it and decide whether to accept or decline. Your contact details are not shared with the owner before acceptance.

Three paths that can meet

You can find a listing, find someone to search for housing with, or receive a proposal from someone who already has an available option. RoomUpItalia connects these paths while keeping the final choice in the users’ hands.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

Do I need to register to view listings?

Public listing search can be used without signing in. You need an account to publish a search, use roommate search or receive proposals from owners.

How does roommate search work?

Enable the option in your search. If other users have joined and have a compatible search, you can view their profile and send a contact request. Contact details are shared only after acceptance.

How can an owner find me?

If you have a published search and chose to receive proposals, you can appear among compatible tenants for a published and available property. The owner can then present one of their offers.

Do I have to reply to or accept a proposal?

No. A proposal highlights a possible opportunity. You can review it, ignore it or decline it without any obligation to accept.
