Roommate Matching

The Idea

Housing Works Better Together

Finding the right place to live is hard enough. Finding the right people to live with can feel impossible. Roommate Matching changes that by pairing compatible people before they even start looking for a home.

Our matching algorithm considers what actually matters: your budget, your daily habits, your life goals, and your preferences for shared living. Once your group is formed, you browse and apply to listings on myroofgroup.ca together — splitting costs, sharing spaces, and building a household that works.

Features

What Makes It Work

Matching that goes beyond surface-level preferences. We focus on the factors that actually determine whether roommates get along.

Budget Matching

Get paired with roommates in your price range. No awkward conversations about rent splits — everyone is aligned from the start on what they can afford.

Lifestyle Compatibility

Morning person or night owl? Clean freak or relaxed? We match on what matters for day-to-day living so you actually enjoy sharing a space.

Goal-Based Pairing

Students, professionals, families — find people with similar life goals and timelines. Whether you need a short-term arrangement or a long-term household, we match accordingly.

Group Formation

Build your ideal household before you even start looking for a place. Chat with matches, form your group, and agree on shared expectations up front.

Integrated with Housing

Once your group is formed, browse and apply to listings on myroofgroup.ca together. No more coordinating between separate platforms — find your people and your place in one connected experience.
