How it works
One place. Two next chapters.
Whether you’re moving in or moving on, here’s your next step.
-
01
Find your fit.
Choose your campus and narrow things down by dates, budget, and the kind of place you want.
-
02
Make an introduction.
Verify your student email, then send a short request. Share a bit about yourself and your plans.
-
03
Take the next step.
Once the owner accepts, exchange emails to arrange a visit, review the lease, and talk through the details.
-
01
Show the space.
Verify your student email and add your rent, dates, details, and photos. Save a draft until it’s ready.
-
02
Find the right connection.
Publish your listing and review introductions from interested students. Accept when you’re ready to talk.
-
03
Pass it on.
Coordinate the visit and lease directly. Once you’ve found your next student, mark the place as handed off.
Handoff makes the introduction. You handle the lease and payments directly.
Good questions
A few things
you might be wondering.
A clearer picture before you make your move.
Take a look aroundHow does student verification work?
Choose your campus and sign up with its matching school email address. We’ll send a verification link. Verify your email before you list a place or send a handoff request.
Verification confirms access to that email. It doesn’t verify a person’s identity, enrollment, property, or lease.
Is Handoff free to use?
Yes. Browsing, posting listings, and sending requests are free to use. Handoff doesn’t collect rent or deposits. You and the other student arrange the lease and any payments directly.
When is my email shared?
Your email isn’t shown on public listings or pending requests. When a listing owner accepts a request, both students can see each other’s email in the app. Keep contact details out of your listing and introduction if you want them to stay private until then.
Can I list a room in a shared apartment?
Yes. Choose a private room, shared room, or entire place. Include clear photos, accurate dates, and the details someone would want to know about roommates, shared spaces, utilities, and lease requirements.
Which campuses are supported?
You can sign up and browse at USC, UCLA, LMU, and CSULB. Listings are added by students, so availability varies by campus. If yours is quiet, your place could be the first.
What should we handle before moving in?
Arrange a visit, check the property and lease details, and confirm any required landlord approval. Agree on the terms directly. Handoff connects students and doesn’t inspect properties, sign leases, process payments, or resolve lease disputes.
