Renting a room or an apartment, especially for short-term period, can lead to seriously stressful and uncomfortable situations for someone if there is an issue with the landlord.  Many renters feel more comfortable when staying in an apartment lent by their friend, or at least a friend of a friend.  Trusting a landlord before moving in can take a load off people’s minds.  Cool person in technology Nitzan Yudan wants to use his website FlatClub to help create more living situations where this trust between landlord and tenant exists.  FlatClub is part renter’s marketplace and part social networking site.  Yudan operates the site under the premise that people would be more willing to rent rooms to others if they knew that person on some level first.  To make this easier to achieve, FlatClub hosts several different “clubs” on its website.  Each club centers itself around an established community, such as a university or a place of work.  For example, there are clubs for London Business School students and alumni, Apple employees, and American Express employees.  FlatClub partners with a number of these companies to establish these online clubs. When a club verifies someone as a member, they can see flats posted within that club and can message landlords from the club who have posted a room on Yudan’s site.  Anyone who has trouble with club verification should call a tech support company to see what might be the problem.

Yudan designed the concept of clubs to give people a sense of comfort when going into a rental arrangement on the site.  In theory, when two people have a shared experience they can draw on, they are more likely to be comfortable sharing their living space or going into any sort of business arrangement with them.  This is the foundation that Yudan built FlatClub on when he started his business.  Just as people want a computer IT support provider they can trust with their technology, they want a landlord they can trust as well.

Yudan has spent over a decade in business.  He has worked in both financial services and IT in the past.  He founded FlatClub in 2010 and has been running the company as his sole business project ever since then.  Yudan’s education has been international in nature.  He received his bachelor’s degree in Israel before eventually attaining an MBA in finance and entrepreneurship from the London Business School in 2011.  As he grows his business, Yudan will likely continue to apply the skills his varied experiences have taught him over the years.
