I think your biggest issue with any "work-arounds" is going to be your legal liability and holding the proper insurance in case something goes wrong, which I'm going to assume you'd need to be properly licensed in order to be properly covered by insurance.

You may have heard that staging your home properly can make a big difference when you sell your house, but what exactly is home staging, and is it really worth your time and effort?

Finding someone with the expertise to screen and place tenants properly is rare.

I've spent the last 3 years nagging the city to sell me a lot next to my property so I can install a driveway and they've finally agreed.

@Alex Houser You need more numbers and a proper inspection to justify the price. 

Having reasonable expectations, hiring a local professional (Realtor or PM), doing your research, and doing everything right (i.e. pro photos, professional design, good renovation, proper amenities and location, etc) are the keys to success in 2025.

Co-Living, when done properly, should be less work per lease than LTR. 

Install cameras around the parameter of the property today; post no trespass signs; change your for rent listing. 

As long as you are in a decent area and do proper screening, you will be fine in NJ. 

However, it’s important to ensure that the deed is properly recorded with the county recorder’s office to make the transfer official.
