Interesting to hear.

What are the blockers?

Feel like this would be very much for people who are happy with both / either.

I'm a private person, I don't like other people in my space much. They are noisy, disruptive, messy and overal generally very annoying.

I also don't really trust people to be in my space when I'm not there so that's a non-starter.

The sharing economy is incomprehensible to me. I have no interest in participating in it.

Fair enough!

Suppose this wouldn’t be for you ... would you trust people more with a peer review system like Uber / Airbnb?

Speaking only for myself, no that would make no difference whatsoever. I don't want people in my house. It's my house, that's the point of it being my space.

I understand that sometimes people are in an economic situation where they need to make certain choices, but I would be much more likely to move to a different region and have a smaller place to myself.

I don't want people here, unless I explicitly invite them and allow them

Nope because those systems can't be trusted either.

I don't need the money nor the company, me and my family enjoy the space we have. If I was young urban and single perhaps, but probably I'd just have a smaller space.
