for house-hunting couples

Find where to live.
Together.

Whether you're buying your first home or searching for the right rental, Nestmate scores every postcode district in England, calculates both your commutes, and keeps everything in sync between you and your partner.

Coming soon to iOS. We'll email you once, when it launches.

The problem

House hunting was built for one person. You are two.

Whether you're buying or renting, the chaos is the same. The biggest decision of your lives is scattered across apps, messages, and browser tabs. Sound familiar?

01

Your partner sends you 47 Rightmove links on WhatsApp. You've lost 43 of them.

02

You've got 6 tabs open calculating stamp duty at different price points. None of them agree.

03

You argue about whether the commute from Sevenoaks is really "only 40 minutes."

04

You can't work out if you pass the letting agent's 30× income rule.

05

You moved in and discovered the broadband can barely stream a video, there's no GP within walking distance, and the area floods every winter.

06

What was wrong with that flat in Didcot again? Neither of you can remember.

Save from anywhere

One place for everything you've found.

Browse Rightmove, Zoopla, OnTheMarket, SpareRoom, or OpenRent like you normally would. One tap saves any listing — sale or rental — straight into Nestmate. Your partner sees it instantly.

It auto-detects sale vs rental and parses price, beds, furnished status, pets policy, and agency details — so there's no manual entry.

Two commutes.
One clear picture.

Each partner sets their workplace and preferences. Nestmate calculates multiple routes using real National Rail timetables and TfL zone fares. Season ticket costs compared weekly, monthly, and annually — with railcard discounts applied.

Your combined view.

Everything syncs in real time between your phones. Score and shortlist areas independently, then see your combined results. Rank areas with combined weightings, track viewings, react to properties.

How it works

Three steps. Three minutes.

Nestmate is in beta — here's how it'll work when you get access.

    Add both commute destinations, set your budget, and weight the metrics that matter to you. Works for buying and renting.

  2. Add areas & properties

    Research areas by data, or save listings from Rightmove, Zoopla, OnTheMarket, SpareRoom, or OpenRent with one tap. Sales and rentals tagged automatically.

  3. Compare & decide together

    Everything syncs in real time between partners' phones. Rank areas with combined weightings, track viewings, react to properties.

It costs less than a single train ticket, for the decision of a lifetime.

One partner pays and the other joins free. You're already sharing the rent — might as well share the search.

Joining the waitlist is free — you'll only choose Free or Pro once the app launches.

A quick note

I built Nestmate because my partner Nicole and I went through the exact frustration this app solves. We were drowning in tabs, trading WhatsApp links at midnight, and arguing about whose commute should take priority. I'm a solo developer, and I built this because no one else had. The data is real, the scores are transparent, and the goal is simple: help couples make this enormous decision without losing their minds — or each other.
