Safety and fair housing

ID verification is optional. RoomieHunt members can submit their identity with a government ID for a verified badge. ID review is not a background check and is not a safety guarantee — always meet in public, use video calls first, and never send money before viewing a room. Listings and members must follow our Fair Housing & Community Rules: no discrimination on race, color, religion, sex, familial status, national origin, or disability.
