Housing in exchange for services in Paris

Housing in exchange for services is a solidarity-based formula that is growing rapidly in Paris. The principle is simple : a landlord or main tenant in Paris offers reduced-rent accommodation in exchange for a regular, pre-defined service. The most common services in Paris include housekeeping, grocery shopping, childcare, tutoring, companionship for an elderly person or minor household tasks.

This arrangement is legally regulated and must be formalised in a written contract specifying the nature of the service, its frequency and the housing benefit in return. It is particularly popular among students and young professionals on tight budgets, as well as seniors and dependent individuals seeking regular home assistance in Paris.
