For ex: I have a section 8 tenant ( one of my best tenants) who has been with me for several year, the housing authority has denied every attempt of a rent increase each year for even an amount as low as $5 ( yes $5 bucks, I was testing them).Some of the things I love about section 8:* You can use the rules to your advantage.

Upon further research, I discover the guy in unit 1 gets to trade rent for handyman services.
