Why not question homeowners who have moved their housing from long-term rental to vacation rental? One of the major reasons I've heard that they do it is because of the costs associated with tenants trashing their home and then taking them to court. Vacation rentals are not as hard on your home and, while there are bad landlords out there, many long term tenants are not responsible. Maybe the problem isn't with the homeowner, it's with tenants learning to be good tenants.
