I'll try and sum this up as efficiently as possible. I am about to go under contract for a Section 8 house. I've run my calculations and it appears to be an excellent return.

What sort of extra due diligence (if any) should I do for section 8 specifically?

I have not yet visited the house. I will this weekend. The tenant is already in place (and has been for 7 years). I have not signed the contract, but as it stands I am only getting 7 days of due diligence. Is that enough for my section 8 research?

Any section 8-specific advice would be appreciated. I've got a good adviser helping me out, but I would appreciate other input on the HUD side.
