How it works

  1. 1

    Send us your place

    Fill in our listing form or contact the team. We will come back to you to confirm details and photos.

  2. 2

    We list it for free

    Your place goes live on VSA, visible to students searching near VUT and NWU Vaal. NSFAS and private tenants are kept separate.

  3. 3

    Students apply through VSA

    Interested students send enquiries through the platform. We connect you — your contact details stay private.

  4. 4

    You pay only for students placed

    When a student signs a lease for your place, we record the placement and invoice you R350. No fee for enquiries or viewings that don't lead to a signing.

What counts as a placement

A placement is a student who signs a lease for your place through VSA. There is no fee for enquiries, viewings, or students who do not sign. You only pay when a bed is actually filled.

Example

If 5 students are placed in your property through VSA, the total fee is:

5 × R350 = R1750

Invoicing

We invoice after each placement is confirmed. Payment terms will be communicated when your listing goes live — please contact our team if you have questions about billing before then.
