Advertise your room for free or search over 1142 rooms. Receive a notification when a new room with your search criteria has been published. - Create favourites - Contact directly - No login necessary You've found a new job or training place, and you've given notice on your old flat. The only thing missing is a future home in a shared flat. In this situation, you were previously faced with the arduous task of rummaging through countless notice boards in a foreign city to collect telephone numbers and then, a few hours later, wondering where you had put all the notes... this app now offers you the opportunity to search for suitable offers and find a suitable flat-share room within a few minutes. Or you would like to rent out a room yourself and have already invited several interested parties to do so. However, a choice has failed so far because you cannot imagine living together with one of the applicants under the same roof. In this case, one goes to "advertise for free" and makes one's advertisement accessible to a broad public.
