Creative Ideas for a very short-term Short Term Rental?

[Sarah Lorenz]

We are buying a house on a big lot-- we'll demolish and build 2-4 houses. It will be 6-8 months before we get started, so I need to either get a renter for that time period or do something else creative. It is not too far from the University of Michigan stadium in Ann Arbor, and there is a substantial STR market in town, especially on football weekends. I do have STR experience. This place is 1800 sf, but only has one bathroom, 2-3 bedrooms, and is kind of shabby. It has a big, shady, fairly private lot, though--almost an acre. I'm not sure if it is worth furnishing for that length of time. Any great ideas? Could I attract people with RVs, maybe? Not sure how to even do that.
