Why compatibility beats being first near University of Miami

Near a big campus, rooms turn over fast and it's tempting to grab the first lease you can. But a mismatched roommate — opposite schedules, different cleanliness standards, money friction — is what turns a school year miserable.

Roomit is building a compatibility-first roommate matching experience: instead of swiping on photos, future matching will focus on the factors that predict whether two people live well together. Hamilton is the initial market. See how the matching works.
