The PHA will also conduct their own background check on the tenant.Sign a lease and contract: If you approve a Section 8 tenant, you'll sign a lease agreement with them as well as a separate contract with the PHA outlining the terms of the voucher payments.

Also, you should check with your local municipality to confirm they will allow you to convert the property back to a 2-unit.

Check out similar listings in your area, see how they're doing, read reviews, and snoop around the pricing.

Check the leases, make sure that your tenants understand the rules, then enforce the rules that are in place.
