I haven't done much research on the market but I have seen a few people start to mention it more.

So I worry about the gotchas.Thru research I already found the one about getting signed acknowlegement of Tenant's Rights and Responsibilites. 

Respectful (most) people who just need a little help getting on their feet.This post gave me a good starting point to do research into the program and how to set up housing with them.Thank you! 

Reality is many bad events/outcomes was done with risk and/or stupidity including poor research.

That was extremely informative , I’m going to be doing some research on this information

I can also point you to a ton of resources if you'd like to do your own research.
