triplex, 1br higher rent than 2br. 1br section 8 payment
I currently own a triplex. The triplex consists of 2- 2br/1ba rent is $1050 and 1- 1br/ba $950. The 1 bedroom currently has a section 8 tenant payment
All the rents are under the fair market value for its zip range.
The 2 2bedrooms are currently month to month and the 1 bedrooms lease is up in August. I wanted to contact the section 8 department and want to raise the rent to the fair market value of $1150. I'm thinking of keeping the 2bedrooms at the current rate. This could be a stupid question but I guess this is why some of us are here.. But would it cause any issues that my 1 bedroom which is getting paid by the state will have a higher rent than my 2bedrooms?
