Section 8 rentals issues
Been doing Sec 8 rentals in Dayton for a while now. I’m curious as to why more landlords don’t rent their homes section 8. Espically in the rougher sides of town.

When section 8 goes well it's awesome. The down side is all the red tape you need to go through to get the tenant into the house. Multiple inspections with a goal post that keeps moving. One inspector will come out on say 4 items need to be corrected before the house will pass. The followup inspection will feature a different inspector who will cite 3 separate items outside of the original 4. This continuing cycle turns a lot of people off of the program.
