Femke, Gijs and Veronique Femke and her son Gijs from Haarlem have permanently swapped their rental home with Veronique from Hoofddorp. For Femke, who has already moved 25 times and is currently living in a home that is too small, this swap represents a significant improvement in her living situation. Veronique, on the other hand, lives in a home that is too large and, with an eye to the future, wishes to move to a smaller home, preferably in Haarlem. The mediation and support during this home swap have proven to be of great value to both parties. |
