Even More Rental Home Rip Offs

We should've known that we'd find more inauguration rip offs than the five we highlighted last week, but we didn't expect one of them to come from a former presidential candidate: Fred Thompson is reportedly offering up his one-bedroom condo in DC for $30,000. At least you get to stay for five days.

If you're too partisan to rent from a Republican, though, the people offering up this five-bedroom Bethesda home for $35,000 sound hip enough to be Obama fans:

The house is modern, just over one year old, lots of glass, stainless steel, stone, maple...

Most "MTV Cribs" pale in comparison to this property, it is truly one of a kind.

Not really the five-figure type? We managed to dig up an even more expensive rental if you want to mark the historic inauguration with a historic amount of vacation debt. This suburban Maryland home spans 7,000 square feet and can be yours for a week for $150,000. On the upside, it comes with a chauffeur, a chef, a masseuse and "private security." Even a guy who played a DA on TV can't promise you that!
