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?

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.
