HomeExchange

HomeExchange is the world’s largest home swapping platform, connecting travelers across 155 countries through a trust-based, non-monetary exchange model. Founded in 1992, the company enables members to exchange homes instead of money and experience hospitality in a more authentic way. In the last year alone, HomeExchange enabled 2.3 million travelers to complete more than 11.8 million overnight stays. The company continues to enhance its platform and expand differentiated offerings, including HomeExchange Collection, its curated tier of exceptional homes.

Verlinvest partnered with co-CEOs Emmanuel Arnaud and Charles-Édouard Girard in 2026 to support HomeExchange’s next phase of global growth. With its investment in HomeExchange, Verlinvest makes a meaningful addition to its portfolio of global, fast-growing companies, supporting HomeExchange as it strengthens its platform, expands its community and accelerates its development across North America and Western Europe. The partnership reflects Verlinvest’s ambition to back category-defining consumer businesses that anticipate lasting shifts in behavior and have the potential to build iconic global brands.
