Renewal Form

(This form can also be used by lapsed members)

Experience shows that returning members tend to continue with the details of their previous listing, with the exceptions being preferred dates and destinations.

If your house details are unchanged, this form allows renewing or lapsed HomeLink members the option to complete an abbreviated form, which typically takes around 5 minutes. If you wish to update your home details, just tick the box that gives access to the full application form. If you choose to update the description of your home and surrounding area, this will be entered into the directory, which is why there is limited space for descriptions. If you are a current member your existing on-line listing will be unchanged. If you are a returning (i.e. lapsed) member, you will find that there is scope to greatly expand your web listing once on-line.

Please read the explanatory notes on the right hand side of the form for guidance on completing each section.

Photos: You can manage your photos yourself on-line (add, delete, re-order and add captions) and so there is no need to email images to us. You can access the photo management system via the ‘edit my listing’ button. If you have any trouble, just let me know at caroline@homelink.org.uk.

American Express Cardholders: Please note that PayPal converts payments to US$ before converting back to Sterling. Differences in exchange rates, will result in a higher charge being debited from your account. We therefore recommend that you use a different card if possible.

Miscellaneous Questions

Media interest in home exchange holidays continues to increase.
Would you be prepared to speak to a journalist about your home exchange experiences?

Would you allow us to make a photo of your home available to the media (personal details will be withheld)? N.b. requires high resolution images min 300 dpi

Experienced home exchangers can often provide reassurance to those who are in two minds about joining the home exchange community. Would you mind an enquirer calling you for a short chat? (Limited to 3 per year)
