chances she is going to lose the benefit are essentially zero....Although for the case given by the OP I would concur that the tenant can say she was forced, in my own experiences in talking with Section 8 tenant prospects it is the tenant always offering a side deal because I explain that I get paid more rent in the open market than what Section 8 will pay.

The new mortgage on the new $340k duplex home which is an FHA loan is going to be a monthly payment of $2800 and we will refi ASAP (the current rate is 6.7%) when rates go down.We have done some nice improvements on the SFR and will be refinishing the wood floors before a renter moves in (July 1) so feeling like it's a great opportunity for the right long term renter and we plan to screen prospective tenants well.We are taking a $20k HELOC on the SFR for the downpayment and plan to pay that off within 12-18 months.

We usually ask the prospect two related questions- how do you prefer to be communicated with (email, text, phone call), and what is your definition of timely?
