Also they're trying to MANDATE government voucher programs-- Banning the ability to say NO to section 8. 

If a tenant decides to move they can't have a new voucher if they have an outstanding balance with a utility company or the landlord.

@Tom R.I am one of the few lottery winners that took my first time winnings and never looked back.When I was 18 the Washington State Lottery sent me a voucher for $20 in free lottery tickets.

In my neck of the woods, section 8 does annual home inspections for everyone on a voucher.

They also made it mandatory that a landlord CANNOT refuse a potential tenant that is on Section 8 or has a Housing Voucher of any kind.

However, here are some things we as investors can do to help:1)Volunteer with a local organization working to help end homelessness. 2)Invest in affordable housing (Section 8, low income housing tax credit (LIHTC), Veterans Affairs Supportive Housing (VASH), etc.) by accepting subsidy vouchers at your rentals, partner with experienced developers on larger projects or invest in equity funds that provide capital to develop affordable housing.3)Invest in naturally occurring affordable housing.

@Jeremy Janszen     That's why I rent out to tenants that have Section 8 Vouchers.

I’d treat it like applying for a Section 8 voucher where a tenant needs to prove he has need.

If restrictions were in place, like with food stamps or Section 8 vouchers, it would assure that the funds are being used as intended. 

Talk to the local section 8 office and other voucher programs.
