Based on the additional detail, you can deduct the cost of your trips to manage your C-Corp and its property as a business deduction. The expenses for trips that combine personal and business purposes would need to be prorated depending on the amount of time spent on each purpose during the trip.
And you (as the homeowner) could certainly charge rent to the C-Corp when a C-Corp employee/owner is using the house for business purposes. The per diem rate could be a useful way to set a nightly rate. But then, you (as homeowner) would have to report that income on your personal return.
Your company cannot deduct an expense that it doesn't incur, however. If your company actually pays for your lodging for a business trip, it can deduct that expense. But whoever receives that payment for lodging -- whether a hotel or you as the homeowner -- will have income to report.
