@Michael LeesonI would recommend reading this article https://petriepettit.com/blog/landlord-tenant/cdc-and-hhs-issue-order-for-temporary-halt-in-residential-evictions-to-stop-the-spread-of-covid-19It is posted by one of the better law offices that deals with Landlord/Tenant laws in Wisconsin.

Another slight problem is living on the South Shore of Massachusetts, Real estate is on the higher side but also if I find the right deal homes 350 and under in my area seem to be selling like hot cakes.

They are probably doing it because it is incredibly hot especially this week, it may be temporary until the weather gets back below 100 degrees. 

The motels and my 22 furnished houses compete for the guys working short term temporary skilled jobs. 

If renting a part of your home is somewhat temporary and you do not want to treat it like a business, use schedule c and go through the hoopla of depreciating a portion of your home and maintaining the records long term, etc.

So, while we will be looking for the temporary office, the need to purchase a building will also be addressed. 

I'd recommend looking at the south shore.  

Entrepreneurs never fail; they only have temporary setbacks.

They even offered to bring us temporary window units while we wait for the new one to arrive. 

Almost everyone works through a temporary contract agency, so max pay is about $20/hr before taxes.
