Renting
-
Find a place near campus or work
Choose your campus, town or workplace and see what is close, nearest first. Narrow it down by rent, a room or a bed, furnished, and NSFAS accreditation. You do not need an account to look.
-
Ask, and save what you like
Message the landlord from the listing, and book a viewing where they offer one, or ask someone you trust to go for you. Save places to compare, and save a search to hear when a new place matches.
-
Apply once
Your rental passport keeps your details and documents, so you upload your ID once and use it for every application. The people moving in with you can join your application.
-
Approved: the room is held for you
When the landlord approves you, the room is held for you, and nobody else can be approved for those dates. Sign the lease before the approval runs out.
-
Sign, and it's yours
Read and sign the lease on your phone, with a code sent to you. Once it is signed, the room is yours for those dates: it cannot be given to anyone else.
-
Pay in the app
Your deposit and rent appear on your home page, with what is due and when. Pay online or by debit order, straight to your landlord, and keep every receipt. A parent or sponsor can pay their share directly.
-
Move in, and live there
Arrive knowing exactly where you're going. Record the move-in inspection with photos, and report a repair from the app and follow it until it is fixed.
Letting and selling
Put your rooms, beds and flats in front of students and working people looking for a place, answer them as a team, and book viewings without the back-and-forth.
Selling a property? List it for sale on JourneyStead the same way, and buyers find it under Buy.
