Trusted Partner — Home ExchangeTrade your home for free stays anywhere in the world
HomeExchange is a global home-swap network. List your home; stay in someone else’s for free anywhere in the world. Annual membership replaces hotel and Airbnb costs entirely. Especially powerful once you’ve settled abroad — your foreign home is desirable to other members.
Join HomeExchange →Once you’ve settled abroad and your home is desirable real estate to other expats and travelers, HomeExchange unlocks essentially-free travel. List your home in the network, exchange directly with another member (you stay in theirs while they stay in yours) or use HomeExchange’s GuestPoints currency for non-reciprocal stays. The annual membership pays for itself the first time you stay in someone’s Paris apartment for a week.
Direct exchanges
You stay in their home while they stay in yours — same dates or different dates.
GuestPoints currency
When direct exchange isn’t feasible, use GuestPoints to stay in any home in the network.
160+ countries
180,000+ homes worldwide. Major cities, beach houses, ski chalets, country cottages.
Why expats love HomeExchange
Once you’ve moved abroad, your local apartment in Lisbon / Mexico City / Madrid is exactly what other members want to experience. That gives you outsized leverage in the network — your listing is in demand. Use it for U.S. visits home (stay in a member’s home in your old neighborhood for free) or for European weekend trips. Annual membership cost is recouped on a single 5-night stay versus what hotels would cost.
- 180,000+ homes in 160+ countries
