Silvernester Stories
"What are the odds that four people with such diverse backgrounds could come together
and find this harmonious way of living together in a shared space? I think it's great."
- Brenda, Harald, Mark and Katharine
"I love being here. I think it's important to have somebody else around,
especially if you don't have family here. With Silvernest, it was very easy." - Suz and Tim
"I thought, why put such a substantial amount of money into an apartment
if I can have that money to go off and travel or do things around town or buy a new bike?"
- Kathy and Sandy

"If you can't swing a forever home and you still want to stay where you are, you may need an alternative source of income. And an increasingly popular one…is home sharing. Silvernest, a home-sharing service for older homeowners that matches them with roommates, started just five years ago and already gets eight applications for every listing, says founder Wendi Burkhardt. Older homeowners, she estimates, can make $12,000 to $18,000 annually renting a room out."- Kiplinger's Retirement Finance: Moves to Make Now to Age in Place
* Insurance policy covers up to $10,000 for the housemate's belongings with no deductible
and $100,000 for the home against damage the housemate might cause. Please refer to insurance provider's
policy documentation, which can be found in our TOUs, for a full list of coverages and exclusions.
