Section 8 income requirements

[Jason D.]

I have a new rental that will be in service in a couple weeks, and ready for renters. I am going to try my hand at accepting section 8 tenants, which will be a new experience for me. In my other rentals, my income requirement has always been 3x rent.

In Pinellas county, the section 8 tenant pays 30% of their income toward their housing, regardless of the rental, and the housing authority pays the remainder.

My question is, how would you suggest I modify my income requirement fo this scenario? I would, of course, not alter my credit or background requirements, but the income portion has me tripped up a bit.
