I really wish the article would at least attempt to clarify the WHY and the HOW of what I assume is some sort of deed restriction. National Park with residency restrictions? Home Owners Association? Not actually a sale and in fact just a lease? With little to no actual reporting going of in the article past the headline, this feels like either a nothing burger or plain fake/false/misinterpreted reporting to generate engagement. And that, discourages me from wanting to engage any further with my own research.

It's not meant for year-round inhabitation.

an occupancy restriction means the owners can only inhabit the property for 51 weeks of the year.

...which is basically stuff people ignore, and which I would advise people to ignore.
