@Austin Largusa The property and the lease/tenant are two distinct items...so, unless you are dealing with a property owned by the housing authority or their subsidiary, built with tax credits or receiving tax credits, it's not a section 8 property...and section 8 is really a mis-used term...it's actually called a Housing Choice Voucher and they are used across many populations from at risk of homelessness, to corrections re-entry...to house veterans, etc.

The quality of this man’s end of life will be drastically impacted by my company, big responsibility.I volunteer coach 5 soccer teams and while congratulating one of my players, I noticed his teary eyed mother, whom I have come to know at a distance over the last few years; I immediately asked the matter and she quietly let me know they were living in a hotel and were officially homeless, she said her mother hadn’t spent the rent and bill money wisely.

And, we're still in hurricane season - and last year's Hurricane Michael has still left 40% of the people in that area homeless today - so it is "the perfect storm."

Especially in major metro areas like San Diego.I haven't been to SD for at least 15 years but I remember it was a pretty nice town, but with all the rumblings about housing shortages and issue with the homeless in the general area, "AirBNB's" are a low hanging devil fruit.

I would not wait one more day to commence the nuclear (lawsuit) option, as delay may mean her whole ceiling caves in from the ongoing water damage(winter is coming) making her homeless too!
