-Section 8 tenants tend to follow the rules or risk losing their voucher-If a Section 8 tenant damages your rental (and the deposit doesn't cover it) you can get a judgement and if you provide the Section 8 office with the judgement they will require the tenant to pay it before he/she/they can move into a different Section 8 property-Section 8 tenants tend to move less than typical tenants (especially if your property is halfway decent as most Section 8 properties in my market are in bad areas of town)-In my market, a Section 8 unit isn't inspected by the city because the Housing Authority inspects it yearly.

Doubt it...Are there any concerns that water issue will damage your unit in any way?

Long story shore tenant damaged laminate countertop.

technically I mean.. as its not rent its a deposit for damages ???

If the cost does substantially exceed your deductible and would warrant a claim, ask your agent what the typical premium surcharge would be for filing a claim under vandalism.Should everything line up to file a claim and you do have coverage for those damages, the insurance carrier will issue payment to you. 

so now they all want tour my entire bld. lawyer said not let in without warrant but now feels like mafia but they dress in govt clothes.

One negative for us as litigants was my wife's sister is a college student, not a wealthy stockbroker, so the amount of damages you can sue for is small, and the amount of time huge by comparison due to the reputation of the oil company.

Both me and hubby dressed up just to sign papers and ahhhh....sorry for such a lengthy post but I am proud of myself and thankful to you all for being here.

How long do you think it will be before the city realizes the damage they've done?? 

The secondary focus is how to pay for it.Unless it is obvious that the vandalism happened from an unrelated party, usually the tenants are responsible for any damage.
