Baitna is our answer to scattered listings, WhatsApp brokers, and unclear contracts. For this pilot we have verified 120 rooms across Dubai South, Al Barsha and International City — all with clear pricing, photos, and a StudentVerse guarantee. Here is how it works if your university is in the pilot.

WHAT IS VERIFIED
Every room is visited and photographed by us. We check Ejari eligibility, DEWA inclusion, commute time by metro, and the landlord's response rate before it goes live.
Ejari eligibility confirmed
DEWA inclusion checked
Metro commute timed door-to-door
Landlord response rate verified
Photos taken by us, not renders
GUARANTEE
PRICING & GUARANTEE
Rent is shown inclusive of fees. If what you see is not what you get on move-in day, Baitna rehouses you within a week at no extra cost — that is the guarantee.
QUICK TIP
Screenshot the listing on viewing day — if anything mismatches at move-in, our guarantee covers re-housing within 7 days.
