I have a sfh rental in Maple Heights Ohio. 4bdr 1 bath. I would like to rent for section 8 tenant . 

it was posted on Zillow for few weeks now.  house in decent condition . no application / no interest so far.is that make sense?

I thought there is big demand . I know its winter but still.. Any idea why?? are there any other platforms for such listing?

Are you only allowing section 8 tenants?

The initial thought is you are probably charging too much if no one is interested, or your photos or description are bad.

Four beds and only one bath probably reduces demand as well, that’s potentially a lot of people sharing one toilet.

And it is winter - I’m in Buffalo, I hate listing rentals this time of year. Demand is down and often times the people looking to move right now are not the greatest tenants.
