Upcoming summer or fall rentals?

I am a 2009 Swarthmore grad and an incoming Assistant Professor of Sociology at Penn. My family is looking to buy a home in Swarthmore but, given the limited supply right now, we are anticipating that we may need to rent for a period to buy ourselves more time. It’s a shot in the dark, but we wanted to put out a call for any short(ish) term rentals that might be available soon: perhaps someone traveling for the summer and/or going on a fall sabbatical? We’re very grateful for any leads.
