Government Housing in Florida

Hi,

I recently moved to Florida from MD and investing in rental property. Sec 8 program in MD was Ok and I didn't have issue renting to tenants using it.  If anyone has had any experience with Sec 8 or other government programs here in Florida (Polk County), please share it. Is it safe here to rent to Sec 8 tenants?

Farhad, how did you make out? I am just starting section 8 in Polk County and looking to connect.  Let me know how it is going for you!
