All of it, in one place

Finding a place is where it starts, not where it ends. From your first search to your final year, Cribb carries the whole journey: places you can trust, people worth living with, and the community you land in.

Finding a place

Score, compare, book

Every listing carries a Cribb Score out of 100. Pin your shortlist, line places up side by side, and book viewings from the landlord's real availability.

Cribb Score on every listingSide-by-side compareSlot-locked viewings

The score weights are the real ones: location 40%, price against the local market 30%, amenities 20%, listing completeness 10%. Once a landlord has reviews, their record counts too.

Knowing who's real

Verified on both sides

Landlords upload government ID and proof of ownership before anything of theirs goes live. Students sign in with a @uoguelph.ca email.

Landlord ID checks@uoguelph.ca onlyHuman-reviewed reports

Your surname is never shown publicly. You appear as your first name and last initial. Reports on listings, posts and items go to a queue a human works through.

Sorting out roommates

Groups & matching

Fill in a compatibility profile, then organise the friends you have, or find the housemates you don't, ranked by how well you'd actually live together.

10-factor compatibility quizRotating invite linksBuilt-in group chat

It works both directions: groups browse individual students, and individuals browse groups that already have a place lined up. If an invite link gets passed around, rotate it and the old one dies.

Move-in & move-out

Cribb Marketplace

Furniture, textbooks and everything that changes hands between move-in and move-out, traded student-to-student across fourteen categories.

Students only14 categoriesProxy-bid auctions

Auctions bid on your behalf up to a hidden maximum, and a late bid pushes the deadline back, so nothing is won by whoever refreshes last. Winners who vanish get struck, and the runner-up gets the item.

Campus life

The Bubble

A campus feed with threaded replies, likes, and authors worth following: events, deals, and what's actually happening in Guelph.

Threaded discussionsStar your favourite authorsWrite for it yourself

Students apply to become Cribb writers, applications get reviewed by a person, and approved writers publish under their own byline. Nothing goes out on autopilot.

Built by students who got tired of the housing search.

We spent too long on sketchy sites, ghosted by landlords, and signing leases we didn't understand. So we built cribb, the platform we wish existed.

Every listing gets
a Cribb Score

No more guessing. Every listing is scored 0-100 on the place itself: what it costs against the local market, where it is, what it comes with, and how completely it's listed. Once a landlord has reviews, their track record counts too.

85+ Great Match
65-84 Good Option
<65 Review Carefully

Under 3 reviews a listing is scored on the property alone. At 3 reviews the landlord's record starts counting, and at 5 it carries equal weight.
