    This is an interesting concept. In the United States it is becoming more and more acceptable to live with a roommate. I haven’t seen many people looking to find a roommate and live in a house though. Here it is usually in a two or three bedroom apartment. Have you considered expanding into the North American market? I’m curious if there are cultural differences that might need to be considered to tweak the model a little bit for the American market. Best wishes on the startup.
