Housemate Match
Housemate Match (HMM) is a unique, nationally recognized, home sharing program that matches mature adult homeowners who have extra room in their homes with adults (tenants) seeking a roommate in a beautiful and safe place to live in the Metro Atlanta area. HMM connects two people who are looking to combine personal and financial resources. HMM provides rooms to rent for those who prefer to share a home rather than living alone and for those who choose to remain in their home and age in place. Our nationally recognized homesharing program is nonprofit and nonsectarian. International friends are welcome. Why Use Our House Mate Match Program?
