Kylie
Looking in: Stanmore, Redfern, Newtown, Enmore
Hello, potential new housemate! I've just moved up to Sydney from Melbourne a few weeks ago and am ready to move into a new place ASAP. I work full-time in veterinary pharmaceuticals and play bass guitar in a punk-rock band. Whilst I like to catch a gig on the weekend, I keep things fairly low-key during the week. I’m partial to a Netflix binge with housemates and a big ol’ bowl of popcorn. I’ve been living in a sharehouse environment for 10+ years - I’m clean and tidy without being too strict, I pay my rent and bills on time, and am respectful of my housemates and their belongings. I'm down for a good chat over a glass of wine and keen to share a meal every now and then, but also respect others' space and need for downtime. I am also an animal lover and have two cats (domestic shorthair, 8 and 10 years old) and am looking for a home where they can live too. They are house trained and very chill, spending most of their time sleeping on my bed or rolling around outside in the sun.

I'm 23 yo, pretty chill guy, very tidy and organized. I love cooking and socialize with people. Work at CBD, so I really need a house near of everything (city/train station). Let's be flatmates!
Ginger & Josh
Looking in: Surry Hills, Newtown, Enmore
We are two 21 year olds - one studying full time (a Bachelor of Musical Theatre) and one working full time. We have an adorable 2 year old Irish Setter pup, Alfie. Looking to move from Brisbane to Sydney in the New Year!
Konker
Looking in: Saint Peters, Redfern, Newtown, Bondi, Surry Hills, Darlinghurst
Super chill, i'm vegetarian so i cook a lot of my meals. Sociable but also love to do my own thing. Love a beer, gym and blasting old jazz records.
Courtney & Kate
Looking in: Newtown, Marrickville, Leichhardt, Erskineville
Hey! We’re Kate & Courtney! :) Kate is an inner west kid, who works for everyone’s favourite swedish furniture company. Her favourite thing in the world is brunch. Can get behind a wine or two, lives a fairly active social life. Otherwise you’ll find her binge watching shit crime shows. I (Courtney) am from Perth (don’t judge). I love going to see live music and finding some excuse to go to the pub. We’re both super laid back and very respectful, but always down to catch up at the end of the day, but also happy to keep to ourselves. :) P.S. Kate has multiple pets.. none of them are hers.
Sasha

Easy going and clean
Jackson
Looking in: Newtown
Hi, I'm a 22 year old Engineer working fulltime. I'm respectful, tidy and will be working long days, Mon-Fri. I like to spend an hour at the gym most days, so I'll hardly even be home! When I am home, I would consider myself to be generally sociable and friendly :). I am looking for a place anywhere between 1-4 weeks from now. Thanks for reading!
Belinda
Looking in: Erskineville, Newtown
I’m moving to Sydney from the Sunshine Coast for a career opportunity but also excited to explore a new place. It’s me and my super affectionate cat Etta who are looking for a home. I’m really easygoing and embrace people’s quirks. I love picnics, the beach, good books and cooking dinner for others with a glass of wine. Etta loves to lay in the sun.
Mitchell
Looking in: Surry Hills, Summer Hill, Petersham, Newtown, Enmore, Darlinghurst
Hey so I’m Mitchell and look, I don’t want to just live with you, I want to actually like you as a person and more than just tolerate you (what a nice guy). So let’s just get that out of the way (perfect, now are you a serial killer?). The most important thing about the house I want to live in is the people who also live there (unless the house is a crack den). I want to be friends with you, not that we have to spend every meal together and share everything in our lives (but FRENS), but get on pretty well and be able to chat about whatever. If you're looking for someone to make your house a home (please I hope someone's getting royalties from that expression on this website) then I’m here for it. I have just finished a communications degree majoring in media production (wow so wild), and logically now work full time for Toyota Finance (what). I come from the middle of nowhere called Kurrajong (so mysterious), it's beautiful but very far from anywhere (so modest too). I play bass guitar and piano in my spare time (everyone loves a musician right), and occasionally try to make some kind of art (creative!!) or help out on friend's films (he has friends?!). Love going to live music and exploring the city (of course you do you white boy). I also am occasionally funny (he’s not).
Beth Coulson

I am a 24 year old female from the UK, looking for a private room in the CBD or inner west for at least 3 months. I am a very clean and respectful housemate, looking for somewhere with likeminded people! I work 50 hours a week so am very busy, so I need somewhere where I can get a good rest, but also want to feel comfortable with my housemates and be able to share a bottle of wine from time to time :)
Katie
Looking in: Paddington, Darlinghurst, Annandale, Saint Peters, Redfern, Newtown, Erskineville, Enmore, Alexandria
Hello! I’m 28, work full time in comms in the city during the week. I’m usually out and about catching up with friends on weekends. I’m clean, tidy, respectful of housemates. I like downtime but also like to catch up for an occasional dinner and glass of wine. Can move from mid-October. Can be flexible.
Belle

Kate
Looking in: Stanmore, Saint Peters, Petersham, Newtown, Marrickville, Lewisham, Leichhardt, Glebe, Erskineville, Enmore, Camperdown, Annandale
I'm really easygoing. I live a fairly active social life and coupled with work it means I'm out and about a lot. On the odd day when I'm home I'm extremely relaxed and love a day of Netflix, binge watching anything and everything, but especially love crime shows and psychological dramas! Can get behind a wine or two and love listening to music no matter what I'm doing. I work at IKEA in the Service Centre and have grown up and stayed around the inner west for most of my life. I love the vibe and activity and am constantly on the look out for cool hidden bars or live music places. Holla at me if you have any recommendations!
Beth & Aleksandar

Hello! I'm Beth, I'm 30 years old and I am a musician, AV tech and aspiring fullstack web developer. My partner, Aleks is 28 and is starting his career in marine science. He is also a qualified Divemaster. We both have work lined up in Sydney, based at the harbour. We are currently living in Cairns but we're moving down to Sydney at the start of October for work and to explore a new place! We're looking at around 3 months stay but can make it a bit shorter or longer if needed. Aleks will be leaving to work in Indonesia early January and I have to be gone by Jan 26th as my visa will be up! So that will be the maximum time. We both like to keep healthy and feel good (we're not always great at it but we're keen!). We're fairly early risers and like to get a good night's sleep. We practice acroyoga (keen beginners), I practice and teach aerial yoga (I have my silks with me so if there's a potential rigging point at home, all housemates VERY welcome to hang/practice whenever you like of course!). Other interests include: comedy improv, learning new things, chilling at home, exploring the great outdoors, singing (not very well...)... We don't have pets but I would LOVE to be in a house with a dog/cat/chicken/pony :D I eat plant-based but am totally fine being in a meat-eating house. I don't judge other people's eating habits, I appreciate it when people don't judge mine either :) Aleks is a card-carrying omnivore. I do need to practice my instruments (recorder and clarinet) but I am very respectful of quiet times and make an effort to play when I'm not disturbing other people. There is also a chance that I would be able to do most of my personal practice at an alternative location if preferred. We're ideally looking for a bills-inclusive price to avoid surprises. If bills are not included, please let me know what the average is for your household so I have a solid idea of what to expect! Very much looking forward to finding our new home. Beth and Aleks

We're two friends looking for: - 2 private rooms OR 1 private room and 1 shared room (with another flatmate you may already have), with a budget of $300 per person. -Being in the same property would be ideal, if not we're open to being in different properties.

Hey Hey. I’m Justin, lovely to meet you. 21, actor singer dancer (musical theatre trained at Nida), current job performing in the corporate sector in Australia and overseas (so in and out a lot) and two or three casual jobs on the side when I have the odd week where there’s no shows. Can also play the piano and trumpet too. I’m gay so hopefully you are all LGBTIQ+ friendly. I’m social so getting on with you guys will hopefully go great and easy as, love to dance and have a drink but love my own space so common sense house mate rules I totally get. Have lived in a sharehousing before so will always do my bit to clean up after me and keep the house looking ship shape. That’s just a few facts about me, ask me anything you wanna know though and looking forward to meeting you.
