NJ Section 8 approval process

[Megan Brooks]

Hi fellow NJ landlords,

I received a rental application for a tenant and they are section 8. I don't have experience renting to section 8, I have read about the pros and cons on the various bigger pockets articles and forums. My question is, is it easy and fast to become an approved apartment through section 8? I'm still taking other applications but would like to know the process on this in case we decide to go with that tenant. Any other words of wisdom regarding section 8?

Thanks!

Megan
