Home Share offers a free process to Home Seekers and Home Providers to support their housing search for compatible individuals with whom to share a home. The process of finding a home and a compatible individual to share a home with can be overwhelming, intimidating, and lengthy. WRHS acts as an extra means of support in ensuring a compatible match between a Home Seeker and a Home Provider. Both receive assistance with finding a compatible Home Sharer, engaging in an introductory meeting, discussing needs and preferences related to shared housing, completing reference checks, creating a shared living arrangement, and receiving ongoing support after move in.
