Somewhere that feels like home while yours is put right
When a flood, fire or leak means a family can't stay in their own house, we provide a whole furnished home nearby, for as long as the repairs take. We work with insurers, loss adjusters and claims handlers, and we can invoice the insurer directly.
How an insurance placement works
Get in touch
Policyholder, claims handler or adjuster, it doesn't matter who calls. Tell us the household size, the area and the expected length of stay.
We confirm a home
Usually the same day. Every home is fully furnished and equipped, with linen, towels, kitchen equipment and wifi, so a family can move in with nothing but a bag.
Stay as long as it takes
Flexible lengths of stay with simple monthly invoicing to the insurer. If the repair overruns, we extend.

What if the repairs take longer than expected?
We extend the stay. Just let us know as soon as you have a revised date.
Can the family bring their pets?
