Should I rent to homeless person under Homeless Incentive Proram?
I have a small studio apartment about 250 sf with kitchen and bath which is vacant recently. In the past, It would take about two months to rent it out due to the small size. So I listed under Social Serve which is a government housing website. I want to try to rent it to someone with section 8 voucher. Some organization contacted me and see if I would rent it to a homeless person under different programs such as section 8. The rent amount they offer is quite tempting and since I always have a difficult time to rent it out, I have been thinking about it seriously. Does anyone have any suggestions?
