How It Works

The information that you provide when you create your profile on Homeshare Online, including housemate and living preferences, work schedules, house rules and any other needs or requirements that you may have, is all factored into a unique compatibility rating for each of your matches.

Our HomeShare Oregon team is here to support and coach you as you create your profile and consider possible housemates.

Get to know your matches with secure in-app messaging.

Request a background check from potential housemates. You can take a background check yourself as a way to show your commitment to homesharing.

HomeShare Oregon participants receive complimentary background checks through our technology partner, Homeshare Online. This offer is available within three months of setting up your profile.

When you select your compatible housemate, use a homeshare agreement template to document all relevant details that will regulate your homesharing rules. This is the legal document that frames the rules and guidelines for homesharing.

Homeshare Online, our technology partner, provides a homeshare agreement template when you match through their platform.

Participants are assigned to a HomeShare Area Program Manager who can provide support throughout the whole process. Email us anytime at info@homeshareoregon.org call us Monday-Friday, 9a-5p PT at 503-515-2397.
