Section 8 tenant question

[Account Closed]

Hi experts!

I recently purchased multiplex in Ohio. One of unit is occupied with section 8 tenant who is paying lower than a market rent (also lower than current section 8 rent).

I’d like to confirm the following items:

1. Do I need to submit an ownership change form?

2. Current condition of the building and unit needs some repairs and maintenances. If I request a written request (assuming it passed 1 year period), is there any chance that section 8 rent can be decreased because of the unit/building condition?

3. I’ve heard horror stories re section 8 in Ohio area. Should I send a lease termination letter to the tenant since it is currently MtoM and find new tenant?

I am new to all of these and want to hear from others who have more experience.

Thank you!
