Is Homesharing a good solution for you and for Cortes?

• Have an extra room?
• Looking for housing on Cortes?
• Like some company around the house?
• Need help with chores?
• Could you use some extra spending money?
• Want to help solve the housing challenges on Cortes?

Homesharing is gaining in popularity as a way for people with an extra bedroom to produce some income and have company around the house. Homesharing services help to vet potential tenants and connect them with people that have an extra room.

Please join the Cortes Housing Society and FolkU on Saturday, March 16th at 10 AM on zoom to learn more about homesharing and to discuss whether it’s a potential solution for Cortes: https://us02web.zoom.us/j/82541685391?pwd=Y29IZXRpVUVEKzVUUm4zUzM5KytJQT09

The Cortes Housing Society is exploring creating a homesharing program on Cortes that would help vet potential tenants to help people with an extra room to get connected. As part of our learning journey, we are hosting a discussion with two experts on homesharing. One speaker is leading a pilot program on Pender Island that is successfully making these connections and one is from a US homesharing website.
Please join us to learn and to share your thoughts with us.
