iCircl Lodging Information

Short Stays Within Your Trusted School Circles. iCircl empowers members to rent their apartments within their trusted school circles for short stays, anywhere from two days to a few months. iCircl adds value to both hosts and guests: Hosts: They make money by renting their apartments with total safety, only to people they trust. They know the credentials of their future guests in advance, as well as how they are connected. Hosts extract value of their most expensive and underutilized assets, their homes, and make money that otherwise they would not make (as they would not rent their apartments to strangers). Guests: They save money by renting from a trusted network. Hosts are risk adverse and charge higher rates to strangers than to acquaintances. For this reason, building a high trust score translates into dollar savings. Moreover, renting from trusted people, guests can be sure that the properties they pick are in line with their expectations. Both: Renting from/to trusted networks minimizes the risk of fraud. Also, given that both hosts and guests are related to trusted networks and know how they are connected, they behave according to their higher standards of cleanliness, respect to the neighbors and for one another. The power of real life connections is by far stronger than a few reviews in a website.
