A room shouldn't cost $25 to find.
For years, finding a room near campus in Zimbabwe has meant one thing: paying an agent $25 just to get a landlord's phone number. No inspection. No guarantee. Just a number — for $25.
For a student living on limited monthly support from home, that's not a fee. That's a choice between a bed and a month of food.
CasaMax exists to close that gap.
Free listings for landlords. $2/month for students. Verified rooms, real contacts, no gatekeepers.
Because housing isn't a luxury product. It's the first thing every student needs to even start their degree.
What CasaMax actually does
Three things, done properly. Nothing more.
We verify every listing
Our team physically confirms every landlord and property before it goes live. Not vouched. Verified. Every listing carries a badge that means we stood in that room.
See how we verifyWe charge $2, not $25
Students pay $2/month to unlock any landlord's contact — not $25 per contact. One price. Unlimited access. No per-room commission, no hidden charges, no middlemen taking a cut.
We're free for landlords
Landlords list for free — forever. No commission, no listing fee, no cut of the rent. Students pay the $2 that funds the platform. Landlords keep every cent of what they earn.
The system was broken.
We fixed the price.
The $25 isn't for the room. It's for a phone number — one contact, often unverified, with no guarantee the landlord is even still available. CasaMax replaces that with a verified listing, a direct line to the landlord, and a flat $2/month.
The antagonist isn't agents or landlords — it's the broken system that made opaque pricing the norm. We're fixing the infrastructure, not picking a fight.
Same room. Same landlord.

List for freeWhat we stand for
The values that decide every product decision we make.
Fairness over profit
The $25 fee existed because no one had built the alternative. We did. A fair price for a real service — that's the whole point.
Verification, not promises
Anyone can say a listing is trustworthy. We visit. We confirm. We badge. 'Verified' on CasaMax means someone from our team was there.
How verification worksNumbers, not adjectives
$2. $25. $23 saved. We lead with specifics because specifics are what make a claim credible. If we can't put a number on it, we don't say it.
Protector, not promoter
We don't upsell. We don't manufacture urgency. Our job is to remove the fear from a genuinely stressful decision — then get out of the way.
