Insurance company paying rent...

So I have a rental listed for market rent at $1725 and today a temp housing company called and said they have a family looking for a place ASAP, their house burned down. The temp housing company will pay the rent and provide the furnishings for the family.

My question is can I negotiate $2500 for rent giving they are looking for only 6 months and I typically do not offer less than 1 year? Has anyone had experience this before? How much higher can I expect to negotiator the rent? Thank you!
