Energy plans,minus the maths.

Send Homerun the house's electricity or gas bill. We do the maths, compare it against plans from a panel of energy retailers, not the whole market, and explain what we find. If the house wants to move, our comparison partner completes the switch.

No spam. No sales calls. Compare panel of retailers, powered by comparison partner CIMET.

Nobody in the house owns the energy plan.

  • The account's in one person's name.
  • The bill lands in their inbox.
  • Everyone agrees the house should compare plans.
  • Nobody does, because it belongs to everyone.

Plenty of sharehouses sign up for an energy plan once and never look at it again, while the rate quietly creeps up.

Some customers may be paying more than necessary because lower-priced plans or offers are available from other retailers. The ACCC puts that at around $221 a year for households that stay on the same plan for years (2025 average, your bill will vary).

You shouldn't need a maths degree to read a power bill.

Usage charges, supply charges, peak and off-peak, discounts with conditions attached. Comparing two plans properly means doing the same sum twice, and nobody in the house wants that job.

Send the bill. Homerun does the rest.

We read the bill, do the maths, compare plans from a panel of energy retailers and explain what we find in plain English. Not all retailers or plans in the market are compared. Pricing and eligibility may vary by location, retailer and tariffs.

Nobody had to do the maths.

The one bill the whole house shares.

Electricity is the cost a house is most likely to share, which makes it the one bill worth checking together. Nobody has to own it.

From the Sharehouse Generation Report 2026, a survey of 3,562 Australians actively forming or reforming a sharehouse, recruited through Flatmate Finders and Homerun. Not a representative national sample.

Same wires. Same meter. No interruption to supply.

Confirm the details and our comparison partner completes the switch with the new retailer. Switching retailer changes who bills you, not the wires or the meter. The new plan and the date it starts stay in the house's record, for whoever's on the lease next.

Common questions

Do you compare every energy retailer?

No. We compare plans from a panel of energy retailers, not the whole market. Not all retailers or plans in the market are compared, and pricing and eligibility may vary by location, retailer and tariffs. The comparison is powered by our comparison partner, CIMET.

Will we save money?

We can't promise that. Some customers may be paying more than necessary because lower-priced plans or offers are available from other retailers, and the comparison shows you whether that's your house. If nothing on the panel works better, the right answer is to stay put, and we'll say so.

Does it cost anything?

Comparing and switching through Homerun is free for the house. If you proceed with a retailer plan through Homerun, Sharehouse Pro Pty Ltd, CIMET Sales and CIMET Sales partners may each receive a referral fee from the retailer.

Does the account have to be in my name?

The switch is made on the account holder's behalf, so whoever's name is on the bill confirms it. Anyone in the house can send the bill in and get the comparison.

Will the power go off when we switch?

No. Switching retailer changes who bills you, not the wires or the meter. Supply continues as normal.

Will you call me?

We won't chase your details for a sales call. Just a straight answer on your energy queries. You may be contacted about a plan you choose to apply for, and that's it.
