About BiKU Living

Connecting you to your happy home, now!
Your off-campus life, simplified.

Our Mission

To empower university communities with a trusted, all-in-one platform for off-campus living, from finding rentals and subleases to matching roommates and exchanging household essentials.

Our Vision

To be the place every student turns to when life moves off campus: to find home, build community, and grow along the journey.

Our Story

Tired of scrolling through endless websites and group chats just to find the perfect off-campus home? We were too.

BiKU Living was founded out of a desire to create a seamless ecosystem for university communities to connect off-campus. No more blowing up group chats to hand off your sublease. No more asking friends of friends for potential roommates. No more risking scams from random marketplace sellers just to furnish your place.

Founded by Yale alumni who lived this struggle firsthand, BiKU Living gets you home, happy and now.
