If the tenants can't afford it, let them move out and find a new renter willing to pay what it's worth.

Next year, I plan to purchase a second home and move into it.

You haven't provided us with any information that would help us help you.My recommendation: do not sell a property unless you have a plan to invest it in another property that will perform better, or if selling will move you closer to your goals.If you don't have a firm plan, hold onto it until you do.

As the owner of the property that is being severely mismanaged, do I have the ability to move the money directly to my bank through government action?

I obviously have no interest in boyfriend staying as they are constantly a week late on rent and I suspect to not receive another dime moving forward.

Innovative approaches like these are key, you always have to move, adapt and think to figure out a smart approach and make it work for you in today’s market, your case is a great example. 

Aside from the standard BR/BA count and square footage, I always focus heavily on the listing pictures for any comps I pull in my area - finding a comp that's as close to your property's condition and finishes will give you the best apples-to-apples comparison possible.I also wanted to second @Tim Swierczek's input: nobody in Minnesota likes moving in the middle of winter.  

@Constance Kang  the first set up team are usually paid Hollywood actors. 

You will have to either rent out the unit, live in it, or move it off the lot. 

I currently live outside the US and am planning to move back in a few years.
