Decide who gets to see your listing on Hospi Housing
At Hospi Housing we always strive for the perfect match. If you have hard requirements for your future tenants, it's important to be able to show this. We made this possible. Read how.
A successful match starts with clear expectations. Hospi Housing gives hosts and landlords more control over who gets to see their listing. By setting your tenant preferences, you ensure that your ad reaches the people who truly fit your home and lifestyle.
The perfect match
At Hospi Housing, everything revolves around finding the right match between hosts and tenants. We do this through a smart matching system that translates preferences into a match score. The better the match, the higher the score. Our matching takes into account factors such as:
- Age
- Gender
- Rent versus budget
- Availability period
- Desired level of privacy and independence
- Hobbies and lifestyle
Based on these preferences, we suggest suitable tenants and show you how well they match your listing. This way you directly see who would be a good match. Additionally you can check the personal description of candidates and their introduction message (in the chat request). All together this gives a good impression on who might be a suitable candidate for your available space.
More control over who sees your listing
Some preferences matter more than others. That’s why you can now define which tenant characteristics are essential for your listing. By setting these preferences, you decide who gets to see your ad and who can respond.
Candidates who don’t match your criteria won’t see the listing, helping you receive applications that better align with your expectations.

You can manage this via: Listings → select your listing → ‘Describe your ideal tenant’
These preferences:
- Can be adjusted at any time
- Can be set differently for each listing
What does this mean for tenants?
Tenants will only see listings that match their profile, making the search more efficient and transparent. Within those listings, match scores still help highlight the best matches first.
In short
By setting tenant preferences, you stay in control of your listing’s visibility — while Hospi Housing takes care of the matching.
