Section 8 Rentals

[William Burns]

Hi bigger pockets team, I have been looking at getting into section 8 rentals for around a year now. This will be my first rental property, I currently do not know anyone that owns section 8 properties. My peers have lot of negative things about section 8 but they have no real experience to speak on.

I found a good property that will cashflow well & it currently has tenants occupying the home. I do not like this because I did not screen the tenant but on the positive side the tenant is already living in the home so it is cash flowing which is great. 

Can someone please share their story investing with section 8 tenants? Even is it is good or bad your knowledge is appreciated.
