About Us

Our Mission: A Home Beyond the Room

Room Lease transcends the traditional rental service. We believe in not just providing a space to live but fostering environments that enrich life. Our platform thoughtfully selects listings with more than just access to outdoor areas; we focus on the overall wellbeing that comes from a secure and connected living experience.

Why We Started Room Lease

Dr Shiv Sidana’s venture into Australia as a student in 2012 was marked by the common struggle to secure accommodation, a reality that has become even more challenging over time. With firsthand insight into the escalating rental crisis and as a homeowner grappling with mortgage stress, Dr Sidana recognised the urgent need for a solution. This led to the inception of Room Lease in 2023 — a user-friendly platform rooted in his personal experiences, aimed at facilitating a smoother rental process. Room Lease is dedicated to streamlining the house-hunting journey, bringing renters and landlords together in a supportive, community-centric environment.

Sahil Kakar, a Co-Founder at RoomLease.com.au, brings more than five years of deep involvement in the real estate sector and a strong desire to make a positive impact on society. His journey to Australia marked the beginning of an in-depth exploration into the complexities of the Australian housing market. Through these challenges, and later as a property investor navigating the rental market's intricacies, Sahil gained a deep understanding of the urgent need for innovation. This insight, coupled with his entrepreneurial drive, led to the co-founding of Room Lease in 2023. His experiences have been crucial in developing Room Lease into a platform that simplifies the rental process. With Room Lease, he aims to foster a more connected and accessible rental market, offering a solution where finding a home is straightforward and less stressful.
