Energy, water, internet
Two you choose (energy, internet) and two you only report (water, council). That difference saves an afternoon of searching.
The list with deadlinesMy housing search
Give someone a week
Whoever opens an account through your link starts with a week of search pass instead of three days. You get nothing for it. Just someone who is on time.
1
Send your link or read out your code
One link and one eight-digit code. They belong to your account.
2
They open an account
Like everyone else. Through your link a week is waiting instead of three days. They start it themselves, once their search is on and one channel works.
3
You get nothing
Just a counter, from three. Below that it says "fewer than three", so nobody can work out from a number who signed up.

What comes with it
A week and nothing else
No points, no levels and no channels to tick off. One link, one code and one week for whoever starts with it.
- The code also works typed in. At "Have a code?" on your account or on the search pass page. If the other person has not started their trial days yet, they become a week. If their trial already ran, the code tops it up to a week.
- A week is the most there is. With or without a link. A code works once per person, like any other code.
- No priority. Whoever comes through you gets their alert in the same round as everyone else. A week more to look, not a minute earlier.
- Searching together is something else. Searching with your partner, child or housemate? Have a look at Search together.
What we do not do
No share-to-unlock
We never hold back an alert until you have shared something, and we never post on your behalf. Anyone who comes in through you gets the same alert at the same moment as everyone else. You get nothing for it, so there is nothing you need to disclose.
Also under: I've moved in
Register with the council
Within five days of moving, usually online with DigiD. That is a legal deadline. Without it your post and your benefits go astray.
Register with the councilHave the rent assessed
Up to six months after your contract starts, the Rent Tribunal can assess the rent against the points. After that the option is gone.
Six monthsGive someone a week
Someone near you still searching? With your link they start with a week instead of three days.
