Your responsibilities to other home exchange members

It is your responsibility to respond promptly to all exchange offers you receive and to let any other members you are in correspondence with know as soon as you have agreed to an exchange offer. Ensure you are satisfied with all arrangements before agreeing to go ahead with an exchange. Never cancel a firm exchange agreement but, if cancellation is unavoidable (due to serious illness or a death in the family) do your utmost to help your exchange partners with alternative accommodation. Leave your home clean and tidy for your exchange guests. Treat all homes and vehicles entrusted to you with care, leaving them in the condition you found them on your departure.
