Section 8 Direct Deposit Transfer After purchase

[Stone G.]

I have a client inquiring about housing voucher (section 8) direct deposits after he purchases a property with tenants in place. What steps must be taken after the purchase for him to start receiving the rents?

Since you have a Sec 8 tenant, first thing is to ask who their caseworker is and call them directly.  

When it comes to govt, I don't trust their computer skills.  Besides the caseworker can be useful to know if the the tenant gets out of hand - They can pull vouchers.
