Verified listings only
Operators pass license, ownership, and photo checks before a single room goes live.
Transparent pricing
Monthly rent, deposit, and what is included are stated up front. No surprise line items.
Direct messaging
Talk to the operator managing the unit, not a middleman chasing a commission.
Filters that matter
Budget, move-in date, neighborhood, and lease length. Nothing you have to scroll past.
Direct enquiries
Your message goes to the operator managing the unit, with your dates and budget attached.
Real leases only
You sign with a registered company, not an individual.
For operators

Qualified leads

Free to list. You pay only when a room is filled.
Founding operators pay nothing for the first 12 months. After that, a placement fee of 50% of one month's rent, charged once, only when a tenant signs through Lieve. No subscription, no listing fee, no monthly minimum.

Trust & safety
How we protect you
We built Lieve so you can rent a room without second-guessing who is on the other side of the listing.
Every operator license-checked
Business registration, ownership authority, and active status are verified before listings go live.
Photos audited before listing
Each photo is reviewed against the unit to stop bait-and-switch listings before they reach you.
No deposit before a signed lease
No deposit before a signed lease — deposits go directly to the operator. Lieve never holds your money.
Verified move-in dates
Listings come down as soon as a room is filled, so you are not chasing rooms that are gone.
Direct contact with the operator
Questions go straight to the person managing the unit — never a commission-chasing middleman.
Transparent pricing
Rent, deposit, and included utilities are stated up front. No surprise line items at signing.
Utilities status stated
Every listing clearly shows what is included and what you will need to set up yourself.
Equal housing opportunity
We follow the federal Fair Housing Act and do not allow discrimination based on protected classes.
