Use the SpacesShared platform to find your next home. University of Toronto has partnered with SpacesShared, a platform that matches students looking for a safe and affordable housing option with older adult hosts who have spare bedrooms.
SpacesShared ensures that students and older adult hosts are matched ensuring compatibility, comfort, and safety for both parties involved. Each participant must verify their identity, email address, phone number, and pass a criminal background check before entering a home sharing agreement.
You can view matches on the SpacesShared platform, see the ways in which you are compatible, and chat and have video calls with the hosts before making a decision. The SpacesShared platform collects regular feedback from students and hosts to ensure comfort, safety, and satisfaction with the service for all.
To learn more and register to search through the platform as a student or an older adult host, visit the SpacesShared website!
Contact the SpacesShared team for support throughout the process and to ask any questions you may have about navigating the process, home sharing agreements, and more!
