They will pay pensioners to live there 'on paper' to meet your homestead requirement.

The whole tax penalty is thwarted that way

Right now I'm paying rent like a sucker when I could be paid to live here instead? Sounds good to me.

At least they'll be occupied that way. Maybe they can even have whole families move in there, with some sort of agreement that they receive a monthly payment in exchange.
