Section 8 housing multi family rentals

I would love to hear feedback of experiences with section 8.  Good, bad and indifferent.  What does it take to set a property up for section 8, qualifications etc.  How to maintain your status as Section 8? Pros and cons, advantages and disadvantages.  Are there any financing hurdles for buying a section 8?

    Replied

    90 percent of my tenants are section 8 I don't have to chase my rents and I find they are very good tenants. It often gets a bad rep because people confuse it with other forms of welfare.
