Rental Property Investing- Section 8

Rianna Mcgee
Posted

Hello everyone! I have recently came across some videos on working with Section 8 on rental properties. I am curious to learn more about this. Does anyone have any experience with this? I’d love to hear your thoughts and if this is a good route to proceed with, especially in Kansas City.

@Rianna Mcgee how much did the posters of the videos want to charge you for their S8 "expertise"?

Section 8 is a tool, not a cure-all.

It can be a great program if you screen the tenants well. 

Otherwise, they will trash the property, not pay their portion of rent or utilities, and then move on to the next property.
