TAMPA - Robert and Dareda Mueller live in a $900,000 home in Tampa for about $1,200 per month.Rent in the neighborhood would normally run about $5,000.The couple won&#8217;t stay in the home for long, because they are house managers. The couple lives in the home while it&#8217;s on the real estate market.&#8220;We don't have to pay the real estate tax and I don't have the burden of the maintenance,&#8221; said Mueller.The Muellers got involved with the program through &#8220;Showhomes Tampa.&#8221; The company stages homes with furniture and sometimes people to help the property sell faster.&#8220;Buyers perceive a vacant home as a desperate seller, therefore it invites low ball offers. When you stage the house, it turns that upside down,&#8221; said owner Linda Saavedra.Saavedra said about a dozen families in the Tampa Bay area are home managers. She said it&#8217;s a win-win for sellers and for the home managers.&#8220;They get to live in an absolutely fabulous place, have a lifestyle for a fraction of what that home would normally rent them,&#8221; said Saavedra.If you would like to participate in the program you must have your own furniture and be able to move without much notice<div><a href="http://www.abcactionnews.com/money/business-news/how-to-live-in-a-mansion-for-a-fraction-of-the-price?utm_source=1851franchise.com&utm_medium=article&utm_campaign=how-to-live-in-a-mansion-for-a-fraction-of-the-price-2837" target="_blank" rel="nofollow">Click here t</a>o see the video.&nbsp;</div>
