What questions should I ask the local housing authority in charge of the Section 8 program?

Is the next step to fill out the Request for Tenancy Approval form, have the tenant confirm their agreement, and then send it to the Public Housing Authority to schedule an inspection?

@Christopher Winkler Here is the rub with going to the authorities.

Hey Team,We currently have a Seattle Housing Authority (SHA) tenant.

I hate taxes too, but when Airbnb went from a way for individuals who had extra room to share the space to a BUSINESS, they attracted the attention of authorities who now tax them the same as other hospitality businesses.  

Obtain necessary permits and approvals from local authorities.

"A Certificate of Authority is the legal authorization which a foreign entity must obtain in order to be able to conduct its affairs in this state." 

If you have a Authorization to Release or a POA the lender may tell you if you call.

They will inspect the project at those milestones and evaluate all the line items in draw requests before authorizing dispersal of funds. 

There are SOOOO many ways to invest in real estate that its hard to ever say with authority that "now isn't a good time to invest".
