If you don’t have a signed lease with the tenants, which would usually require them to dispose of trash, you can take disputes up with the attorney generals office.

If they refuse or are unwilling, see if they will give you permission to dispose of the belongings so you can get the rental back on the market.

Yes you can if you meet the requirements.If you are not a real estate professional, the passive activity losses (PALs) generally are deductible only (1) against income from passive activities, (2) when the entire interest in a passive activity is disposed of in a taxable transaction, or (3) under the $25,000 rental loss privilege for qualified rental activities (subject to the $100,000 AGI phase-out).The general is a rule allowing up to $25,000 of active participation(see below) rental real estate losses as a deduction against nonpassive income.The taxpayer must make management decisions with regard to the property, have at least a 10% ownership share in the property, and the cannot be a limited partner.

Stop and think about the difference between investing in either single family homes or multi-unit properties where you tenants stay an average of 2 years, you only need to collect the rents once every 30 days and maybe 1 or 2 times per year your tenant has some sort of maintenance issue like their water heater or garbage disposer goes on the blink.When you invest in airbnb's your cost to furnish them is higher, your cost to constantly rent them is higher, you may have 50 to 100 different tenants every year and you need to clean inside and outside every unit every time a guest leave.

Your happy the machine is finally running again but are surprised when the insurance company tells you they are only covering 1/3 of the expenses, because things like freon, freon disposal, and a host of other services are not covered under your insurance policy. 

Tax planning is a long term game and if your advisor had planned your investment and potential disposal, you could have mitigated some of the taxes.
