What language do they speak and is there a supportive community of like-speakers in the area? Your investment in time and trouble, coupled with their rent-ability, will factor into your decision of how far to take this. Being on the other side of the coin (world), I spoke but a poor tidbit of Korean and my korean LL spoke even less English (his oldest son was of some, but minimal, help in our dialogue) but a good Korean/Engrish dictionary helped tremendously and it turned out to be a great (sometimes comical - sometimes irritating) experience.

If you can spare it -- have some faith & patients, provided the requisite "rentability" factors are in place.
