- Add the areas you'd move toType them on your listing or press "I'd move here" on any place guide. Matching uses them to find people heading your way.
- Check My matches every few daysEach match is scored on what you both want: size, area, tenancy type and adaptations. New homes are listed daily.
- Send a request, then messageA request tells the other tenant you are serious. Messages stay on the site until you both choose to swap numbers.

Can't find a direct match?
Sometimes the perfect swap isn't a straight trade - it's a chain. MultiSwap links three or more tenants together so everyone gets the move they want, even when no single match exists between any two of you.
MultiSwap will up your chances.
A wider pool of matches
Works even when nobody wants your exact home directly - as long as the chain closes, everyone moves.
Fully consent-based
Every person in the chain has to agree before anything is arranged. One decline and it's off - no pressure on anyone.
Completely optional
MultiSwap is opt-in. Turn it on in your profile whenever you're ready to widen your search.
