I was curious to know for those other people who might have holdings in Oakland where your highest and best tenant is a voucher tenant how do you advertise to those people if the rental units aren't in highly desirable areas? 

I have a 4 bedroom voucher for $1000. 

If you list at market prices it should be easy to attract tenants.  5-10% total vacancy expense is appropriate in most Chicago markets (about 1 mo every 18-24 months). 2.TheCHA.org has a lot of good info related to Section 8 vouchers. 

- Does anyone here have experience with declining a Section 8 voucher from a tenant who was already residing on the property?

One of the nice features of Section 8 is tenant who break the rules can lose their vouchers.

Hi, Recently I have been thinking about buying some properties strictly for Section 8/Housing Voucher Program tenants.

She'll likely lose her section 8 voucher. 

But not at this time, and my voucher time window is rapidly closing.

So, yes, the first section of the handbook covers the rules (e.g. lender $1M net worth rules, etc.) for SF and MF, including refis and specialty programs (e.g. some section 8 project (not voucher) underwriting).
