Shared Housing Services
For a growing number of persons faced with losing their independence and struggling to keep housing costs within their budget, shared housing is an affordable and viable alternative. Shared Housing Services website.
Homeowners:
- Tired of living alone?
- Feel safer with another person in your home?
- Want some help with household chores?
- Need help paying a mortgage or property taxes?
- Looking for safe, decent, affordable housing?
- Desire the companionship and security of living with another person?
- Willing to do household chores for reduced rent?
Shared living has been known to enhance the health and well-being of all people and allows people to remain independent in their home. Home Sharing also preserves neighborhoods, creates affordable housing and saves housing and healthcare dollars.
Shared housing programs fall into one of two categories:
- Match-up programs help home providers find a compatible home seeker to pay rent or possibly provide services in exchange for a reduction in rent.
- Shared living residences involve a number of people living cooperatively as an unrelated family in a large dwelling.
