Neighbor connects people who have extra space in their homes, like garages or basements, with those who need storage. This peer-to-peer storage service allows homeowners to earn money by renting out their unused areas, while providing renters with a more affordable and flexible option compared to traditional storage facilities, often at half the price. Unlike conventional storage options that can be expensive and come with strict contracts, Neighbor offers a more adaptable solution that meets the high demand for storage in the U.S. market. The company makes money by taking a small percentage of the rental fees, creating a win-win situation for both hosts and renters while ensuring a safe and reliable platform for transactions.
