Curious to know if you guys enforce more people living in the house then on the contract.

Every section 8 house I rent out always has more people living there then on the contract. I understand some do that as that’s how they qualify for section 8 with almost no income, and then let there boyfriend/girlfriend, fiancé, sibling live there who has income also.

Also wouldn’t they get kicked off from section 8 if they find out?

My contracts all say that someone not on the contract can’t live there more then 30 days, but is that something you enforce?

I understand if your paying for utilities that’s a factor also.
