What do students
say about us?
Students visiting Korea consults with Checkmate for their housing needs :)
"I was originally going to use a dormitory. However I was not admitted to the SNU dorm, which was unexpected. I had to find a house before I arrive in Korea, so I was in a rush. I used Checkmate hoping it would help me with finding a decent place. It worked out well in the end, I chose a particular house from the lists they sent me and I was lucky enough to get the house I wanted. Checkmate helped with translation and money transfers, which I appreciate much. If you’re an international student, then Checkmate can be a good option for you."

"I used this service to check rooms around snu. I was living in a house already but wanted to move to another since i was not satisfied with the condition. the manager was great, she spoke english so i could understand things very clearly. i found a house that i would like to move to and the manager helped with the contract process."
