For renters
Rent smarter and safer
CribMatch connects you to landlords and agents and helps coordinate viewings. Here are practical tips for renting in Zimbabwe.
Viewing checklist
- •Bring your ID copy.
- •Check water pressure and borehole availability.
- •Ask about ZESA/power backup (solar/inverter).
- •Confirm security fees and levies.
- •Test network signal in the rooms.
Safety & verification
We help you verify contacts and listing details where possible, and we guide you on safe steps.
Never pay a deposit before viewing the property physically. CribMatch will never ask for banking PINs.
Payments
Most rentals are quoted in USD. We help clarify payment terms (cash vs transfer) and what’s included, upfront.
After moving in
Need a plumber or electrician? Ask our WhatsApp assistant for recommended service providers in your area.
Tell us your suburb and budget and we’ll match you.
Example: “1 bed in Mt Pleasant under $450”.
