Semester subleases

Semester subleases at University of Richmond.

Every fall and spring, University of Richmond students leave for a semester — study abroad, internships, co-ops, early graduation — and need someone to take their room in University of Richmond instead of paying for an empty one. At the same time, exchange students, transfers, and interns arrive at University of Richmond needing a place for a single term, not a year-long lease. Crashmates matches both sides, and everyone's a verified University of Richmond student — not a stranger off Facebook.

Why Crashmates

Is Crashmates better than Bunky or Roomster for University of Richmond?

Other roommate apps don’t verify students. Roomster charges every University of Richmond student a subscription to message profiles — most of which are bots or scammers operating outside the US. Bunky doesn’t verify .edu emails at all and doesn’t carry housing listings. Facebook University of Richmond groups are full of brokers and fake posts. Craigslist is a privacy nightmare. Crashmates was built specifically for the University of Richmond community: only students with a verified @richmond.edu email can join, and joining, posting, browsing, and matching are all free — you only spend a credit to send the first message in a new conversation, with no subscriptions, no auto-renewals, and no $30/month surprises. University of Richmond students looking for verified students near me, University of Richmond roommates near me, or University of Richmond housing near campus get the cleanest signal of any roommate app on the market.
