Your name and credit would stay with the existing note, which you would keep paying on - ideally yourself with money you receive from the "buyer", because if they don't pay your credit is wrecked and your house is in foreclosure.If you search on here you'll see everyone and their brother looking to do Subto and it's a nightmare unless the buyer has the funds to pay the note off if/when the original lender figures out you don't occupy the property any more and are attempting to do what you want to do, since most loans are going to specify that performance.  

Possibly staying in a place for a year, possibly in a smaller unit and moving on and renting it out.

We do get people coming through for ETSU and Milligan graduations, temporary stays for the VA, and some tourism in the summer and fall but you're not going to stay heavily booked. 

We actually stayed in one as an Airbnb. 

@Michael BaumEvery property we ever stayed at had a physical book so yes - it definitely suffices.

I hope you are staying safe in this difficult time. 

I was 2 days away from that happening when the stay at home orders came down.
