Making the Most of Your 14-Days : Expert Tips from the Team Managing Expectations This is your opportunity to explore the platform, discover stunning homes, and begin reaching out to members. While it's unlikely that an exchange will be finalized within the first 14 days, don’t be discouraged! When you unlock the full membership, you'll be able to continue conversations.
Be Flexible with Dates and Destinations As you explore the platform, be flexible with your travel dates and locations. Browse the map - you may find a beautiful home in a place you hadn’t thought of! Being flexible with your choices can help increase your chances of finding the perfect exchange.
Think Long Term Don’t focus on just one exchange—think about local getaways, long weekends, and the many trips you can enjoy throughout your year-long membership. This is an opportunity to plan for experiences beyond the next two weeks and make the most of your membership year.
Put Your Home Online Set your profile up for success by adding photos of your home, detailed information, and most importantly, make your home visible to the community! This will increase your success rate as you message other members and help you make meaningful connections.
Personalize Your Messages Home exchanging is more personal and interactive than traditional booking sites, so take the time to personalize your messages. Share what you love about their home, mention the reason for your trip, or anything else that shows you're genuinely interested. This will help create a stronger connection and increase your chances of a successful exchange.
