SpacesShared - Home Sharing Service

Trent University has partnered with SpacesShared to introduce home sharing to Trent’s campus communities, starting with the Peterborough area.

SpacesShared offers a modern approach to roommate living by leveraging technology to connect hosts and students, making affordable housing easily accessible.SpacesShared logo

The SpacesShared platform provides a user-friendly space for older adults and students interested in home sharing to connect. It offers a comprehensive range of features, including profile viewing, room availability checking, virtual meetings, home sharing agreement creation and signing, as well as rental payment processing. Additionally, the SpacesShared team provides dedicated support throughout the entire process. 

Safety and security are prioritized in this collaboration, with SpacesShared conducting thorough background checks on hosts and students before they move in together.

For students, SpacesShared presents an attractive housing solution, combining affordability with the opportunity to live alongside a local host who can offer valuable community insights. 

Moreover, SpacesShared contributes to reducing social isolation and enhancing social belonging and financial stability for both hosts and students.
