We've made improvements to our site to make your SpareRoom search experience even better.
A couple of months ago, we asked you to share your experience using SpareRoom and what's important to you when searching for a new home or flatmate. Based on your feedback, we've made a couple of changes.
Free to contact ads
75% of you told us it would be useful to filter rooms so you see the "free to contact" ads first. In the Miscellaneous section, you will now see a new checkbox for ads that are "free to contact". Selecting this option will show only ads that don't require an upgrade to contact.
No/low deposit ads
You can now filter search results to see ads that require no deposit or a low deposit (equivalent to one week's rent or less).
Posted by
68% of you who answered our survey said you'd rather deal with/see ads from landlords. We've added a new filter which allows you to do just that. You can now choose to see ads posted only by landlords, private ads (no agents), flatmates or to hide ads from live in landlords.
We hope these changes help you find the right room or flatmate!
