PROJECT GOALS
Our selected project prompt is Finding Apartments & Room-Mates. With more and more people shifting to
cities, finding a good apartment and room-mate is becoming more difficult. This stresses young Gen Z’s
who are either college students, or recent graduates who have most likely started a job in a new city.

to share the space. We aspire to connect the dots and recognize the necessary steps, struggles and past
data which has helped/helps people to find an apartment and a roommate part of the Service Industry
which provides services that helps and connects people for house hunting and finding people to share the
house with. Our services include finding homes of your preference and connecting you to an end number
of brokers for great deals. Furthermore, we consider the people who are searching for a roommate.
Individuals can put their details if they want to be found by others and also search for roommates of their
preference by checking and filtering out the details provided by other individuals. Our key users are young
university students which will be interviewed first to collect data and to draw analysis on. Furthermore, we
can expand the services to all demographics of the society
