HOME SHARE
Your property might not be appropriate for a long-term rental, but you can still make a difference. By lending your home to Big Sky Community Housing Trust for a week (or more), you allow other unit owners who commit to a year-long lease to still visit Big Sky.
The visiting owner borrowing your home pays $500 per week to cover cleaning fees. Staying in an upscale unit, possibly on the mountain with amenities, appeals to condo owners in older units.

HOME SHARE is only offered on a first-come, first-serve basis to homeowners participating in RENT LOCAL for a minimum of one year. Holidays and other peak travel times may be difficult to accommodate. The max annual allowance for HOME SHARE is four weeks. Homeowners may request to break up their four weeks throughout the year or visit consecutively. Visits cannot last more than two consecutive weeks with each week costing $500 for cleaning. BSCHT asks HOME SHARE participants to book at least one week per visit; we cannot accommodate multiple long-weekend visits throughout the year.
To reserve HOME SHARE dates: please click the button below to email your requested dates. BSCHT will check on availability with the property owner. Please allow up to two weeks to receive approval on any date requests. Do not purchase any travel arrangements until dates have been reserved. Once reserved, there is no guarantee that date changes can be accommodated. All requests are subject to availability.
FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
HOME SHARE DONATIONS
Is my HOME SHARE donation tax deductible?
Unfortunately, the IRS does not allow homeowners donating time to BSCHT’s HOME SHARE program to claim a loss of income as a tax deduction. However, the owner borrowing your property will pay you $500 per week to cover cleaning and utility usage.
How long can I loan my property to HOME SHARE?
Is my property ideal for HOME SHARE?
Who cleans the unit before and after a HOME SHARE STAY?
BSCHT asks that property owners loaning their property to HOME SHARE arrange for cleaning services before and after a HOME SHARE stay. BSCHT is happy to assist owners who need help finding a cleaning service. (The owner borrowing the property will pay $500 per week for this service.)
