Our locks allow us to remotely add a pin for a new resident, make temporary pins for handymen/contractors, etc.DISCLAIMER: I don't think the codes can be automatically changed when a new booking comes in.

I just got a HELOC (for use as temporary capital).  

The approaches you’re discussing are extreme for temporary and changing assets.    

I think it’s shameful and most certainly there are other temporary options that would be more decent for all.

Even if people in temporary housing (such as temporary shelters), are technically still homeless, it’s still far better than what we have now.

Consider discussing with your wife the possibility of a temporary borrowing arrangement without maxing out the HELOC.With recent downward trends in interest rates, there's a likelihood of further decreases in 2024/2025.

Maybe a temporary live-in.

And, with a second home approach you can receive a temporary buydown from the seller, as well as gift funds, both of which aren't allowed for investment.

It really depends on where the property is located, there might be more short term tenants that are looking for temporary housing and are willing to pay a premium.

Many were in town on temporary relocation or transitioning while a home was being built, etc.
