Investors & landlords

I have a condo purchased for my son which is rented to him at 60% of fair market value.  I would rent it in the future at FMV if he ever moves out.  I view this as a "not for profit rental" at this stage.  I will enter all rental income  on line 21 and will declare no expenses as I do not file Schedule A.  My question regards is depreciation allowable for this type of property?   I can't claim it but I am afraid it is classified as allowable and when I sell the property In the future I will have to pay the tax on the recapture of the allowable depreciation which I did not and cannot take.  Can anyone clarify this situation?  Thanks.
