An extract from an article in the Daily Telegragh:

Ins and outs of home swaps can be hellish
By Cassandra Jardine / 25 Nov 2006 / The Daily Telegraph / 1117 words

We never got as far as finding out, because I began by emailing the houses in Mediterranean hotspots that I thought we'd like to stay in. There weren't very many and their owners, mysteriously, weren't tempted by an August break in Brixton. Going lower down my list of desirables I got to Florida, but the homes to fit a family of seven were rare and, when I looked them up on the map, in dreary suburban spots. I shouldn't have been surprised. These are real homes lived in by people who also don't have masses of money and need to get to work, so they are unlikely to be in Portofino or St Tropez. I did find one organisation - www.ivhe.com - that offers swaps to delectable spots, using a points system, but it caters for second-home owners with ski lodges in Gstaad to exchange for beach homes in the Caribbean.
