That's not what work done in lieu of rent means. Work done in lieu of rent will only replace part of rent. For example I might get annoyed that repairs aren't getting done and offer to do them instead of paying on month of rent as part of a yearly lease, but no one will allow you to only do maintenance and never pay rent.
Show me someone who, on the open markets, offers to allow you to live in a property in exchange for nothing else.

Property caretaker
A property caretaker is a person, group, or organization that cares for real estate for trade or financial compensation, and sometimes as a barter for rent-free living accommodations.[0]
This happens frequently enough that you can find a number of articles on how to approach that very arrangement from a tax perspective[0].
