Home Share Now facilitates mutually beneficial homeshare matches. Home Share Now’s matching process includes in-person interviews, housing and personal references, employment verification, background screenings, facilitated introductions, a trial period, and written agreements. Home Share Now provides conflict coaching, problem solving, facilitation, written agreements, and mediation for the duration of the match. As of October 31, 2019, Home Share Now is closing. Consumers of Home Share Now will have the option to continue to receive services through HomeShare Vermont's expanded service area.
Home Share Now serves Vermonters in Washington and Orange Counties and a few outlying towns. Most people sharing their homes (hosts) are seniors or persons with disabilities, and many people looking for housing (guests) are financially challenged by market rents or are in a housing transition.
