How to Find Roommates for a House hack?

[Brian Scott]

What website or method do people use to find quality roommates nowadays?

I just bought an SFR to house hack but cannot get any roommate leads-good or bad. The room is posted on Facebook Marketplace and several rental groups, Craigslist, Hotpads, Roomies, Roommates.com. I listed on roomster.com but got nothing but spam and couldn't message without a paid account anyways so shut it down.

Facebook doesn't have a "Room Only" property rental option that I can see so it's a 1bd/1bath house for rent and I put roommate wanted in the description. There is a Room Only option but it changes it to a general for sale listing so I'm using that as well.

I originally put the screening requirements in the ad but removed them thinking it was turning people off. However, there has not been any change with removing them.

 Any other avenues with a good response rate in 2021?
