Boston University (BU) Housing, Sublets & Roommates

Simplify your search for a rental or renter

Online screening is tough, take two minutes to make it easier.

Download the goConfirm mobile app

You'll need your mobile device to sign up and complete verification. Head to the iOS App Store, Google Play Store, or scan the QR code above to get the goConfirm app.

Once you’ve downloaded the app, your first step will be to enter your email and set a password. Next, we’ll move on to building your profile!

Set a profile photo

First, set a profile photo—this should be well-lit and closely cropped to your face. Make sure to choose a photo with no glasses or obstructions, and no other people in the frame.

Your profile photo will not be public, and is only shared with verified users who connect with you through a goCode you choose to share.

Verify your identity

Choose the appropriate country and ID type. Scan your ID in a well-lit room on a neutral background. Lastly, a quick face scan to make sure the person using your ID is you. You're done!

Create your goCode

You're ready to create your goCode! A unique code used to connect with others and build trust in relation to one specific transaction. Enter a descriptive name, choose all the platforms where you intend to share it, and choose an expiry date.

Copy, paste, and share

On the confirmation screen for your goCode, tap the button to copy it to your clipboard. Switch back over to Facebook, and paste it into your new draft post. Submit your post as usual!

Connect with interested members

When another member is interested in your listing or might have one that matches your needs, make sure you ask them to connect using your goCode. They can do this by entering your code in their own goConfirm app.

When they connect, you'll exchange verified profiles and have improved confidence in one another, as well as a record of your connection in the event you need it.

Prefer not to pay an arm and a leg but seeing what's available. Must be willing to use goConfirm app. Beware of scammers y'all.

The goConfirm app has helped our Hockey Buy/Sell Facebook group weed out the scammers and significantly reduce fraud within the group. I highly recommend this app.
I wish all Marketplaces enforced this!

I created a goConfirm account because I had to verify my identity in order to join a Facebook group as a seller. I was so impressed by how seamless the onboarding experience was and how beautiful the UI is! I can't believe marketplaces have not enforced this before, it would help protect so many identity attacks and scams!
Makes selling easier

Used goConfirm when selling my bike on FB Marketplace. Last time I sold something there I had to filter out so many scam inquiries. With this, I had confidence I was dealing with a legit buyer and felt better about the meetup. Highly recommend.

GoConfirm is an amazing idea and it truly takes 99.9% of the fear out of buying and selling in a community such as that. l've used GoConfirm before on other sites and it really is a 3 minute process to open your account and get verified.

Be careful, most of the people messaging you are scammers. They don't want to meet in person or create a goConfirm account but they want you to send money asap. I'm so so bummed. I really thought I'd be able to get tickets.
Awesome, super helpful

I depend on goConfirm whenever I buy stuff on subreddits and in FB groups. The peace of mind was badly needed.
