Obviously there is a lot to discuss on this topic, but for a very quick glance, here are a few pro's and con's to consider when thinking about section 8 rentals:Pros:Guaranteed Rent Payments -> The government pays a significant portion (if not all) of the rent directly to the landlord, providing a reliable and steady income stream.High Demand -> There is often a high demand for Section 8 housing, reducing the risk of long vacancy periods.Cons:Inspection and Compliance -> The property must pass an initial inspection and comply with health and safety standards set by the local housing authority.
