1st Single Family Investment Property-Section 8 or No Section 8?

[Janikka K. White]

Hello, 

I acquired my 1st single family investment property late last year. If you see my previous post. I acquired it for $1 and I was having a hard time finding funding to fix it up. Well I got over that hump and it is less than a month away from being finished. The house is not in the best neighborhood but it is definitely not in the worse neighborhood. The idea of getting it Section 8 approved was brought to my attention. I hear good and bad about Section 8. What do you guys think? Just FYI I live in Dallas, TX and the SFH is in Tulsa, OK (4 hrs away). Give me your Pros and Cons Please.

Thanks!
