For nearly 20 years, we have found apartments for our family and rented out our place. We only had great experiences. Because its focus is on academics, you will meet interesting people! And you only pay a modest fee to advertise your place and a similar modest fee if you find a match. Highly recommended.
The website is very well organized and super easy to use.

I rented out our apartment and rented myself
It seems to be a well designed website and an established, legit business.
But you have to go thru a long process of creating an account and then posting your home, and only at the end they tell you the listing will cost you $60:-/ Other companies make the price readily visible before you start: https://www.homeexchange.com/
That price is to keep the listing up for a whole year, which is useless for people like us who only need to rent out their home for a short period while traveling. They should offer much lower prices for one-time short periods.
Posting is free on Craigslist and Facebook, and also on Airbnb and Turo. They only get paid after reservations are made and executed (not if they're cancelled later on). These guys wanna get paid even if they do not actually succeed in helping both sides.
I complained to customer service and their reply was quick but condescending and unkind:-/
If you choose to create an account and a posting, take the time to read the fine print online.
Tip for consumers:
Posting may make sense if you're interested in renting out your home multiple times over a year. It doesn't seem to be a good deal if it's a one-time thing for a short period.

Our pricing policy is indicated at https://www.sabbaticalhomes.com/pricing and many other places on our site.
I agree that posting your home on our site makes sense if you don't post last minute a one time offer for a very short period of time.
Beware that most platforms which list your home for free will likely end up costing more and/or will sale your personal data. This last comment doesn't apply to our friends at HomeExchange.com.
