January 2026: 2800+ Homes & Non-Simultaneous Swaps 🎉

Hi home swappers,

2025 was a record-breaker for Swaphouse! We approved 1600+ new homes, and grew to a total of 2800+ homes across 88 countries!

But it didn't stop there. We saw more likes, more matches, more messages, and a massive 250% increase in swapped nights (!!)

Now, let's kick off the new year with some fresh features, homes, and swappers' stories below!

1656 Newly approved homes

Community love 💚

When we saw this post on LinkedIn about Alban's Swaphouse experiences, it made us smile BIG. This is what home swapping is all about—and we just had to share it with you too:

New: Non-Simultaneous Swaps 🔄

Until now, when planning a swap on Swaphouse, the swap had to happen at the same time: you stay at their place while they stay at yours. But let's be honest: schedules don't always line up that perfectly.

With non-simultaneous swaps, you can now pick different dates for each side of the swap. For example: you could stay at their apartment in Barcelona in February, and they stay at your place in Amsterdam in April.
