Home Match of the Tri-Cities is a home sharing program that helps connect homeowners with people seeking an affordable place to live. Through this free service, homeowners can benefit from additional income, companionship, or help with chores such as grocery shopping, pet care, or transportation. Home seekers (who live, work, or study in Fremont, Union City or Newark) can benefit from affordable rent and the opportunity to become part of a community.

Home Match connects people based on lifestyle and interests to ensure compatibility and program staff screens applicants through interviews, background checks, and home visits. Program staff will also design a comprehensive Living Together Agreement and will continue to work with both parties, even after the match is made, offering on-going support.

Home Match is a partnership with the City of Fremont and Covia, a Bay Area nonprofit provider of housing and older adult services.
