Section 8 ? What is the big risk?
This may seem like a simple question but why are so many landlords against renting to Section 8 tenants; when it seem like a pretty guaranteed payment. I've always thought renting to Section 8 tenants would be one of the safest ways to get rent paid on time minus the fact that some may have to pay a little extra out of pocket. Basically I am trying to understand what is the risk behind so many "No Section 8/DSS" postings for rental properties.
Thanks
