Roomla is a technology-enabled residential letting and rental-administration proptech purpose-built for Gauteng's overlooked R1,500–R3,500/month accommodation market.

Testimonial

What our customers say

Trusted by Gauteng tenants and property owners for transparent, verified micro-rentals.

”

“A home that perfectly blends sustainability with convenience until I discovered Roomla. From the moment I stepped into this community, I knew it was where I wanted to live. The commitment to dignified living, coupled with verified amenities, is truly commendable.”

AS

Andrew Simon

Verified Tenant, Braamfontein

”

“As a private landlord in Germiston managing 6 micro-units, Roomla completely transformed my collection rate. Having verified tenant checks and standardized Section 5 digital leases meant zero defaults in the last 12 months.”

RE

Ralph Edwards

Property Owner, Germiston South

”

“Finding a verified student bachelor unit in Pretoria without paying ridiculous upfront viewing charges felt impossible. Roomla eliminated all dishonest middlemen—I booked a walk-through and moved in with complete peace of mind.”

NM

Nandi Mthembu

Young Professional, Pretoria Central

”

“The Roomla local scouts physically inspected my freestanding cottages in Soweto and placed fully vetted tenants within a week. Highly recommended for any landlord wanting reliable monthly rental collections.”

KM

Kagiso Motsepe

Independent Landlord, Soweto

”

“Moving closer to my new job in Kempton Park was stressful until I used Roomla. Clear move-in costs, zero viewing fees, and a WhatsApp assistant that answered all my questions immediately.”

ZK

Zinhle Khumalo

Healthcare Worker, Kempton Park

”

“Managing 9 rooms on the East Rand used to be a nightmare of handwritten paper receipts. With Roomla Portfolio 10 at R499/month, my rent ledger is audited and my statements arrive like clockwork.”
