Shared Housing Program

The Del Mar Shared Housing Program matches home owners who are looking for, and could benefit from, additional income, companionship or help in their homes, with people willing to offer that assistance in return for affordable accommodations.

Matching applicants for shared housing is a free and confidential service offered by the volunteers of Del Mar Community Connections.

• Identifies in advance the type of housing arrangement being offered
• Interviews the referred candidates
• Selects a compatible home seeker

The home seeker selects one of three types of possible housing arrangements.

Shared Living Residence: The home seeker will pay to rent a private bedroom and will share the use of some common spaces such as bathroom, kitchen, laundry etc.

Service Exchange: The home seeker will provide services such as cooking, cleaning, driving, etc. for a reduced rent.

Even Exchange: The home seeker will provide the owner with up to 20 hours of service per week in exchange for room and board.
