How do you use a free online roommate finder?

Using A Free Roommate Finder

It used to be that to find the perfect roommate, you had to rely on the classified ad section of your local newspaper or worse, you resorted to stapling posters to trees in your neighborhood. These days, you can use the Internet to pull up a free roommate finder. Try it out! Just do a quick search using keywords “New York roommate finder” and see what happens. It's a lot like an online dating service where you enter your profile information including where you live, whether you're looking for a place to live, how soon you need a roommate, whether you prefer male or female, etc.

To find your perfect roommate, make sure to complete the form as accurately as possible, hit send, and wait for those matches. Once the matches start rolling in, it's up to you to sift through them. Anyone catch your eye or attention? If so, you (as a basic member of the online roommate finder) will have the option of contacting that person. Once you get into the contact or conversational stage of the roommate, you might be required to pay a small fee to enhance your basic membership. Once you do that, a full range of options become available to you, making the search for the perfect roommate much easier
