Most importantly 
Looking for the best in Home Exchange, then look no further as  we are the one but most importantly the only one with a  base  in New Zealand.  John & I  have been Home Exchanging ourselves for 17 years and  are well equipped to give you advice if or when you need it.   We are here to answer your calls at (09)263 9677 No office hours for us, Evenings and weekends are usually our busiest times.
HomeLink has offices just like ours in major countries world-wide. If in the unlikely event that you do have a problem when on an exchange, you can call the local office all of which have English-speaking staff. They can't solve every problem but they certainly can give you very good advice and the advantage of local knowledge. Many web-based home exchange organizations do not even list a telephone number or mailing address.

Experience.
We are the Original Home Exchange company.  Our good idea snowballed and there are now many competitors but HomeLink has been in business continuously for fifty seven years serving the home exchange community.  Many of our Organisers are now 2nd generation and in total bring over a hundred years of experience.We acknowledge that you are free to join with whoever you choose but we advise you to choose carefully  and here is a word of caution.
HomeLink has seen many competitors come and go in the past 57 years, never more so than  in present times when there seem to be newcomers  every month, many with outlandish claims.  Do your research.   In the HomeLink community we know that truth matters. You can trust HomeLink to have  Genuine listings and well distributed around the world, not focussed mainly in one country. Look and you can see the expiry dates on all  lisitngs.


Superior search engine.
We have the premiere search system on the Internet. In addition to conducting simple searches by clicking on maps, a user may add numerous search parameters. For more detailed searches, we offer the "Simple and Advanced" searches which permit a user to completely fine-tune a search. In all cases, the search results may be sorted according to the user's preference. By default, the resulting listings are sorted alphabetically by the nearest city but a user may also sort them by geography which is typically the Postal Code or by the last time they were updated which corresponds to the "Hot List" function.

Breadth of our database.
Because we have so many listings (over 12- 16,000) you will have plenty of choice for exchanges The HomeLink database has only current  members who are seeking an exchange.  While we do have a few rental listings the overwhelming majority are for home exchange.
