Good tenants, paid before move-in. The rest we make easy.
List your furnished apartment once — verified corporate and expat tenants inquire, the lease arrives ready for signature, and first rent plus deposit land in your account before the keys change hands. A partner that has defined premium furnished living since 2012 — bootstrapped, founder-led, no VC.
Your FARAWAYHOME OS account is live in under a minute.
The model in one sentence: We bring verified international tenants — the lease is concluded directly between you and the tenant, first rent and deposit go straight to your account before move-in, and FARAWAYHOME never holds funds. Commission is success-based only, capped at twelve months per tenant.
Three provider profiles, three tailored models. Which are you?
Your model is shown below — everything from “Who rents via FARAWAYHOME?” onwards applies to all three profiles.
Complementary, never competing.
You manage or market furnished apartments for multiple owners — under your own brand, via your own website and general-purpose portals. FARAWAYHOME is your complementary channel for international premium demand: no brand dilution, no direct-sales conflict, no outreach to your existing tenants.
