Why Bunkd works for London
Renting in London is brutal. Rooms go in hours, group viewings feel like cattle markets, and you often commit to living with a total stranger after a 10-minute look round. Bunkd flips this: instead of chasing rooms, you swipe through people — people who already have rooms, or people looking to team up and take on a flat together.
Every profile is phone-verified. You see lifestyle tags, a short bio, sleep schedule, cleanliness, guest policy and dealbreakers — just enough signal to know if you'd actually get on through a London winter.

Squad Mode — team up before you flat-hunt
Lots of people moving to London don't have a flat yet — they need to find both and a flatmate to split it with. Squad Mode lets two or three renters team up first, pool budgets, then hunt a 2-bed or 3-bed together. Toggle Squad Mode in the app and you'll start seeing other renters in your area who want the same.
