This is all fantastic I love everybody's enthusiasm about this thread! This is what I was hoping to prompt was for many people to be able to speak their minds about their perspectives and experiences because it does vary based upon where you are and the way that you do things. Personally in my experiences we have worked with many Section 8 tenants and we have learned to be able to as you stated screen them a little bit better and root out the good from the bad so that you do have a good experience with a Section 8 tenant. There are a lot of great things that come with renting two Section 8 tenants like an annual guarantee of income once you get a negotiated price on a contract with HUD but this does not negate the fact that there is good and bad to everything and whether that be a cash pay tenant or a Section 8 tenant, it's ALL about the way you do business, and whether or not you have experience to be able to recognize the way that certain things should or should not be handled so that you end up benefiting from the situation instead of losing.

let's keep this thread going, if anyone else has any other insights please continue to post this is a great thread because there is a lot of general misconception about Section 8 HUD tenants, properties, and investors, it is certainly a niche market so to speak but if you know what you're doing it can be extremely lucrative.

Hi Julie that's very interesting I have not heard of anything like this before. And this is what I was meaning when posting earlier with James is that each person's experiences are different and it may even vary from state to state person to person property to property and neighborhood to neighborhood. In my experiences, Section 8 HUD tenants are very reliable and courteous to the property even in bad neighborhoods, and all tenants that I have worked with pay their own utilities so that has never been a concern, but I can imagine how that would certainly be a nightmare for the owner of a property if that were something that were happening. Thank you very much for the insight and perspective I really appreciate it, I think this thread is going to get interesting.

@Joe S. if you want to have a conversation please pm me where James can't rudely encroach. Happy to help.

Actually not at all. I don't sell anything, but others that we work with do. You're assuming and being silly again James, but that's okay. You're great at that bud, I guess that's your hobby 😂

PM, sales, rehab, marketing, everything. One stop shop. HUD pre inspection, marketing, whole in and out flow. And we're good too.

I did answer James. You're very offended, wow. I've got to go take care of some HUD tenants James, sorry I didn't answer the question to your satisfaction, I can imagine that must be frustrating for you to think that I have to do something to the level in which you require in order to be sufficient. I exist, so do my experiences, please stop trying to invalidate them because it doesn't please you or support your claim.

Lol a LOT. Again, small world, small thoughts, tiny opinions from James The Rude Dude. Please have a little decency and stop being a gross poster. Don't you have something better to do than to discredit people's opinions and experiences all day? 😂 James, please get a hobby! 

Thanks again for discrediting what you don't know or have experience with. Lol my last comment still stands that I'm sad for how close minded you are to think that my experiences simply can't exist, and you're the only correct person in the world... Must be a very small world you live in James. :(

Very close minded... That's sad.

@James Wise funny enough I got the same impression from you based on your post, that's why I commented because it couldn't be more incorrect based upon my experience.

I will say yikes, you must be pretty insecure if you felt the need to say that about my own experiences that you have no knowledge of in states that you're not familiar with. 

Isn't it possible we're both correct based upon our experiences in different areas?
