Believe it or not, these things actually impact all parts of the housing market, not just the new home sector.Again, to truly weigh the options in front of you, I would suggest having a Realtor do an evaluation for you, and give you a pro/con rundown of each option. 

Your home needs to be in good shape (sounds like it is) and very competitively priced in order to have the few looking choose it instead of another option. 

If there are lease violations, mention them-you not having a key to access the unit WITH proper notice or in case of emergency is one of them.I'd also tell the tenant that they are clearly not happy there, so finding a new place is in their best interest as well and as they have several months, they should have lots of options.

When my loan was not going to close, it was one of the options that my broker and lender told me about and actually referred me to for a conversation.

Airbnb.org, the nonprofit arm of airbnb.com, offers hosts options to assist with emergency housing in times of crisis, such as the 2025 Los Angeles wildfires.

I believe in putting in the work—1,000 hours of research, testing, and learning—before offering advice, and I’m excited to tap into the collective wisdom of this community to refine my approach.Here’s where my head is at: I’m considering strategies like short-term rentals (Airbnb) for higher cash flow, long-term rentals for steady income, or even creative options like house hacking or partnerships to stretch the funds further.

My two favorite loan options for getting started are the FHA 203k or the Fannie May Home Style. 

Option 1.

Obviously the numbers and location would determine which is the best option for me but these would be my preferred methods.
