I am blessed because I [so far]am being blessed with the opportunity to live until I die. and I am having SO much fun playing with power tools, learning how to sand floors [ yes, I am using very special masks and all sorts of protection because of a supressed immune system] and I am getting ready to tackle repairing huge holes in the plaster walls that have concrete under them.

In some areas in my market Section 8 will pay $200.00 more than you might be able to get "open market" one of the benefits aside from HAKC picking up a portion or all of the rent is that Section 8 will adjust the subsidized amount should circumstances change in the tenants life ex: loss of job , injury etc , I have not had a lot of issues with section 8 tenants in general , yes there is a yearly inspection but it’s not as bad as a lot of people make it out to be generally if the house is in fair condition , no peeling paint and is safe you shouldn’t have any issues, the biggest issue I have had with Section 8 is actually getting the process started ex : turning in paper work , processing the voucher, paperwork getting misplaced at the main office , so I say with a word of caution turn in everything at once , make copies , and keep your fingers crossed , once the checks start coming don’t give them any reason to touch the file unless absolutely necessary , I might be being a little over dramatic but I have quite a few stories , but once the payments start coming it’s smooth sailing from there !

Hopefully it was all done well, passed inspection from the city, etc. so that you (hopefully) won't unearth anything when you start to peel back the layers.
