Your prospective tenant may prefer a play room vs a BR in the basement so it is a little tricky. 

You'll regret it.A tenant must be a law abiding citizen (no criminal background), willing (credit verification) and able (job income verification only w/ no commission or tip payments included) to pay rent and take care of a home (landlord references)   If they pass all these, then whether they are "nice" or not comes into play.  

Not sure about Subs, but the whole Contr playing field sounds a lot weaker there....just a hunch2) This could just be the people you are attracting or getting unlucky with....just a run of bad luck.

(talk to your CPA/tax professional for more information)- You can request a pack-and-play for your room if needed. - There is an awesome playroom (great for littles) and an arcade (great for kids and adults alike).- There are also childcare options on-site as well, which can be booked via the resort. 

I am playing devil's advocate and think this coverage denial can easily be fought in court. 

You'll have to deal with the FIRPTA tax withholding, but that would only come into play when you sell the property. 

Is this where a 1031 comes into play?

I am going to try to have the current tenant this is occurring to take me to their bank so I can get the bank statements directly and be sure I am not being played again.

It was a smart play made possible by an area real estate broker who suggested it.

The vast majority of Madison, Morgan, and limestone counties should be prime appreciation plays over the next few years.
