The process usually goes like this:Rental Listing -> Landlord and Prospective Tenant fill out and submit RTA -> Voucher office performs Affordability Study -> Landlord approves estimated rent amount -> Property Inspection -> Approval of Property by Voucher Office -> Lease & Move-InThe section 8 process in/around Baltimore and Baltimore County does take a long time these days.

If the voucher is enough, they dont want to live in a trap house area no more than anyone else.  

I have experience with this and the program also gives the landlord a security voucher.

LIHTC, HUD vouchers, state and county housing incentives? 

IE section 8 and all sorts of voucher programs..

Make sure you have the right voucher holder.

Cant speak to your other options.I have a roughly 50/50 voucher vs market tenant split in my SFR portfolio.

Talk to planning at the city about available funds they for housing projects like TIFs, CRAs, Housing vouchers, housing grants, etc. 5.

I have seen "noob's" have issues with, say, a 5br home and trying to get that payment standard from a 3br voucher holder.

I think you're likely to find that the tenant was supposed to cover the difference as their voucher will only pay so much, and that she hasn't done so.
