I am planning to make an offer for a duplex, one is vacant and another has long time section 8 tenant. The seller doesn't want to vacant them and we can only vacant them after we bought the property according to the seller.

a lot of people say section 8 is difficult to deal with due to low rent and goverment regulations but others say they are good because of goverment involvement you can get rent on time.

I have never deal with section 8 tenants before, any advice of whether shall I keep section 8 tenants are highly appreciated!
