Section 8 a good idea?

Maggie B.

Hi everyone! I am currently considering the possibility of investing in properties in strategic locations under $100k and listing them on section. I understand these would probably not be the ideal tenants. However, I like the idea of the guaranteed rental income from the government. I understand there are many requirements for the property and I would be extremely strategic in the property and screening tenants. Does anyone have experience with section 8? Good idea or not? Would love the hear the advice of experienced investors. Thanks in advance!
