What do you think of House Swapping???

[Pretty Butterfly]

You'd be surprised how many are looking for "country" retreats babe!!!

Do you own your house or rent? If you rent you may need to speak to your landlord/real estate as you could be in violation of your lease.

[Pretty Butterfly]

Nope, its ours.

Its a good swap house.... has 7 bedroom, 5 loungerooms, 3 bathrooms, pool, spa etc... we arent in the best town, but I think in January we'd have a hit on our hands!!

And if not, they could have the unit, which is a holiday rental and looked after by the buildings people anyway...which is a proper holiday place, indoor pool, spa, fully self contained unit, 1 block from the beach, and walking distance to Cavell Ave in GC.....

I say go for it. You also have a pretty good regional airport in your town, they can use it as a home base and travel from there.

I also know how busy it get at CM...good luck

[Pretty Butterfly]

Oh, thanks for that Lisa...

PB, lol, we're not rural, we're remote....waaaaayyyyy out west of NSW, in a little place called Cobar if you're interested! I don't think many people would want to come out this far. It's kind of like we\re too far out for some, but not far enough for others, itms! Not quite 'outback', but too far for 'country'!
Your place sounds amazing!! I'm pretty sure there are websites you can register with if you really want to do it.

Hehe wanna come to tassie!?

[Pretty Butterfly]

If you get a cow, you could call it a farm stay!!!!

There are so many sites to go through..... and some of the houses for swap.. WOW...... just gorgeous, in beautiful places.....

Maybe I should ask Adam first???

[Pretty Butterfly]

Oohh, do you get snow there??

Zavier wants snow this winter sooooo bad!!! None of us have been except Adam, years ago.. so we promised them a snow trip.. but funds will be very short then, and bub is due June... so a quick trip somewhere about late august is on the cards maybe...

Hoping to house swap internationally from Nov- Jan.....

[Pretty Butterfly]

OMG.. there are beautiful chalets in France, houses in the Hamptons!! Some on Florida beach, some in the Carribean......

I'm drooling!!!!!

Might work out where its easiest/cheapest to fly to first, then find somewhere...

My friends parents do this and it has been a real success for them. They live in the middle of no where and they've swapped a few times now. I think it is a great idea, especially for larger families.
