You learn a lot from that experience, especially to strenghten your marriage.

Often there are long waiting lists for section 8 housing in NJ and sometimes they do not take on new applicants.Generally, no a family member cannot be the landlord of a Section 8 household, unless the tenant is disabled and requests a reasonable accommodation.A relative by blood or marriage may only be the landlord of a Section 8 Housing Choice Voucher household if the tenant is disabled, they require a specially-modified unit, and such a unit is only available from a relative.
