A lot of Application with Section 8.

Hello Investors,

I hope you're all doing well. I wanted to reach out and seek some advice from you regarding a situation I'm currently facing.  As I started marketing the property, I received numerous rental applications, many of which are from individuals with Section 8 vouchers.

After doing some research, I learned that it's not permissible to reject applicants solely based on their possession of a Section 8 voucher. This brought up some concerns, and I was wondering if any of you have experience in dealing with tenants who rely on these vouchers. I'm particularly interested in understanding how you ensure that applicants with vouchers will be responsible and reliable tenants. Are there any specific screening methods or criteria you use? Are there any particular warning signs or challenges I should be aware of?

I would greatly appreciate any advice or insights you can provide on this matter.

Thank you in advance for your assistance and support.
