What is Homesharing? 

Homesharing is when two or more unrelated people share a home while maintaining their own private spaces. This setup could involve a homeowner renting out a portion of their home or multiple individuals coming together to share the cost of renting a house or apartment. Every homesharing arrangement is unique and tailored to the needs, preferences, and agreements of those involved.

In some cases, renters may even exchange services—like helping with household chores or caregiving—for part or all of the rent. Whether it’s a formal rental agreement or a customized arrangement, homesharing adapts to fit the diverse needs of the people sharing the home.
