They don't even take away your voucher if you burn your landlord's house down with a grow operation.

You'd be amazed at how some tenants stretch the meaning of a bedroom.However, if you're plan is to rent out to a Section 8 voucher holder now or in the future, measure the rooms to ensure they meet the minimum (I think its 70 sqft).

Before section 8 issues a new voucher to a tenant ( which allows them to move) they will give the owner some time to fix the problem.

As a newbie, use it as an opportunity to figure out regulations, tenant screening, government voucher programs, cost of repairs etc.

My county is currently dealing with 1300 vouchers. 

If you're forced to place Section 8 tenants, your property manager is far more likely to choose the first tenant with a valid voucher and probably won't even qualify them otherwise.

On the flip side to that, this equals tremendous deals, and there are a TON of people with section 8 vouchers.

However, I heard that being in contact with their case worker is a good way to prevent needless damage, for they loose their voucher if the case worker revokes it but that's at the case worker's disgretion.Adam, thank you for your advice!

Especially if you are willing to get approved to take Section 8 vouchers.  

While some people would cringe at servicing that market, we find it's the safest, easiest, and most profitable way to do B/C-class SFH.  1) No felons allowed on the program, 2) you have the leverage of their housing voucher in addition to eviction (if they don't tow the line, you don't just evict them - they lose their voucher, and the waiting list in the Dallas area is 10 years...), 3) you typically can fetch a higher rent rate than what you would get on the open market, and best of all, 4) rent is deposited on time, every month via direct deposit by the Housing Authority.
