How does The Co-Living Matrix verify member identities?

Every member profile undergoes manual human review. Members can upload government-issued photo IDs and submit to optional criminal background screenings before connecting with potential housemates.

Do I have to share my personal phone number or email?

No. Our built-in secure messaging system lets you chat, ask questions, and get to know potential roommates inside the platform without revealing personal phone numbers or social media accounts.

What happens if a dispute occurs between roommates?

The platform includes legally structured Roommate Agreement templates, automated expense tracking, and a dedicated admin dispute mediation workflow to resolve issues transparently.
