I already spoke to his mother who‘S willing to fill up the application and do background check separate from her son.  

@Josh MyrickYou technically can but if you start the non profit typically you cannot be an employee or make $ from it, and profits should be reinvested in more housing.If your goal was to profit in any way, the answer is no

The problem with that is two-fold: first there are likely existing assets that are not replaced that qualify for shorter asset lives so you're leaving money on the table, and second you have no cost basis for the removed assets replaced in the remodel as they're intertwined with the initial building cost basis so you'd technically still be depreciating retired assets which is tax fraud. 

Hi Bryan, do you do background screening with your MTR guests through Airbnb?

That’s the technical frustration that I’m trying to figure out how to solve 

Professionally, my background is in software sales but my overall goal is to transition full-time into real estate investment / rental property managementI'll be looking to acquire my first property via 1031 at some point this year.

My background for following "opinions"; I honestly couldn't out a # on how many tenant placement's I've done anymore.... maybe 4k....

I may be wrong, but as far as I know I cannot just simply tell the tenant to leave for no reason, but in my situation I didn't vet them, didn't do their background check, previous owner did all that.Thanks to all in advance for responses.

However, given that the STR it is technically ‘attached’ to my Primary residence, could I still offset loss years against my W-2 income?

Lending software can be complex as if loan is a 30/369 vs actual/365 and late fees, accrued interest etc come into play it gets very technical and if it’s wrong it can be huge fines and violations.
