Re: Which Section 8 tenant to pick? by Jake on June 16, 2012 @13:23

                              
Have you ever had a sec 8 tenant before? Is it possible to rent to any other applicant who is not sec 8?

Yes I have. No issues with section 8 tenants.

    Every Sec 8 tenant (and their posse and their children and all) will be different.

    You cannot base your future decisions with Sec 8 using your past good luck. That good luck is likely to run out.

    I'm guessing you are relying on stable income from Sec 8 every month. This can quickly become a nightmare if they don't pay you--but they'll still get their same amount every month.

    I guess most of us have learned the hard way, or by talking with other LLs, about the perils of renting to Sec 8. I would caution you against renting to Sec 8.
