There were areas that suffered worse. 

Your questions about hard pull on credit score.... this is part of the game, you will suffer a small dip because of the hard pull.

There are a lot of brand new voucher holders without prior rental experience, that are unemployed and do not know how to care for a house, and also have disregard for things they get completely free of charge, 2) quicker turnover - sometimes after 2 years in the Opportunity area, some of them want to move to another area closer to family, 3) Landlord wont get paid HAP for 2 months after move-in; 4) staffing changes and outsourced inspection are causing staff to make mistakes when processing RTAs and recently suffered new move-in approval delays.
