Some general pros v cons - I'm sure other people will provide other insights as wellPros: -Above market rents- Monthly rent payment on time that you don't have to worry about or chase anyone down for (if full pay)- No shortage of tenants depending on your standards - Tenants are incentivized to not trash/destroy the unit, otherwise they'll lose their voucher (Yearly inspections made by local S8 inspectors to keep everyone honest- Rental payouts are normally adjusted 1-2 times a year to keep up with market rentsCons:- May take a little while to get onboarded - dealing with local govt can always take longer than expected   - Generally won't have a super high credit score (to be expected given it's the govt paying for rent)- Each unit will need to be inspected and meet a certain living standard in order to be approved for fundingYou'll want to make sure you work with a property manager who has extensive experience in working with S8.
