I built a free verified student sublet platform and would love feedback
Hey everyone — I'm a student at Santa Clara University and built studentsublet.app over the past few weeks because I was frustrated with the scammy, unverified nature of Facebook sublet groups.
The idea is simple: every person on the platform is either .edu verified or has completed ID verification through Stripe Identity. No random strangers, no fake listings. Especially in the bay area community, I thought this would be super helpful for students.
Features:
- Post or find sublets with photos, pricing, dates
- Search by city, university, or neighborhood
- Map view to see listings near campus
- Message listers directly in-app
- Student and ID verification badges
It's completely free to use. I'd really appreciate any feedback, especially from people who've dealt with sketchy sublet situations before.
