Skip the WhatsApp groups. Post your spare room in Lekki, Yaba, Ikeja or anywhere in Lagos and get matched with phone-and-ID verified flatmates filtered by budget and lifestyle — all free.
If you already have a flat in Lagos and one room is empty, RoomieHunt is the fastest free way to rent it out. List a spare room in Lekki, Yaba, Ikeja, Surulere, Gbagada, Ajah, Magodo, Maryland, Ogba or Ikoyi with photos, your asking rent and your house rules — and we push it to verified room-seekers already searching that exact neighbourhood.
Thousands of people in Lagos are actively looking for a room to join right now, so a well-photographed listing usually gets its first serious message within 24 hours. You keep control: set gender preference, budget range, move-in date and lifestyle rules (smoking, pets, kitchen habits), then screen every applicant's verified profile before you reply.
There is no agency fee, no commission on your rent and no charge to message. Whether you're a tenant subletting one room, a corps member splitting a self-contain, or someone whose flatmate just moved out mid-tenancy, posting takes about three minutes and your room goes live instantly.
Sign up free, pick 'I have a place and need a roommate', add 2–5 photos of the room and your asking rent. Your listing goes live instantly and verified flatmates can message you directly.
No. Posting a room and messaging matches is 100% free for both sides. We don't take commission on rent either.

Yes — every profile shows lifestyle tags, budget, gender, work and a verified badge. Chat in-app first, then meet in person before committing.
Add 3–5 photos of the actual room, the yearly or monthly rent, whether service charge, power and water are included, the nearest bus stop or estate, and your house rules on smoking, pets, guests and cooking. Listings with photos and a clear rent get far more messages.
Lekki, Yaba, Surulere, Ikeja and Gbagada see the highest room-seeker demand on RoomieHunt, largely from young professionals, students and NYSC corps members. Rooms priced near the area average usually get interest first.
Check your tenancy agreement — many Lagos tenancies require the landlord's or agent's consent before you sublet or add an occupant. Confirm it before you accept anyone, then put the rent split in writing with a roommate agreement.
