What is Homesharing?
Homesharing is a living arrangement where two or more unrelated individuals share a home, each typically having a private bedroom but sharing common areas like the kitchen and living room. These arrangements can involve a homeowner renting out a room or multiple people sharing a rented property. The reasons for homesharing vary, including affordability, companionship, security, and the exchange of services for reduced rent.
