Share houses, without the Facebook chaos
Finding a room shouldn’t mean thirty “dm me pls” comments, no replies and your phone number on show. Kipmates brings rooms, hosts and housemates together in one place built for it.
Perth and surrounds, Western Australia
About
Our mission
Make finding a room, or the right housemate, simple and safe. Clear listings with the details that matter, profiles you can trust, and conversations that actually get answered.

The problem
Why we built it
Today most rooms are shared in Facebook groups, and it’s hard to tell whether a room even exists. We built Kipmates to replace that with something calmer and more reliable.
- Posts get buried
- Messages go unanswered
- Names and numbers are exposed
“I’ve messaged quite a few adverts but no one replies.”
Who it’s for
We started with FIFO and DIDO workers: away on roster half the time, home between swings. Hosts like them because the house stays quiet. But Kipmates is open to everyone looking for a room or a housemate.
Where we’re heading
We’re launching in and around Perth first, then growing with the people who use Kipmates. Better verification, better search by move-in date and roster, and more ways to find a good fit.
About
What we stand for
Clarity
Weekly rent, bills, bond, minimum stay and move-in date, shown upfront on every listing.
Safety
Verified profiles, approximate locations and no personal numbers on show. Everything stays in Kipmates messaging.
Respect
Hosts reply for free and reply rates are visible. Everyone deserves an answer.
Honesty
No fake reviews, no invented numbers. We only show what’s real.
