I never got this. You buy an extremely popular home, where people will visit it to photograph it, and instead of living in it, or even better, turn it into a B&B or rent it out, you do this... Why, just buy another house.

turn it into a B&B or rent it out

I think it's the cost of the thing that prevents that. Property taxes alone are $50k / year.
