I rented to a section 8 tenants when I had my investment property in Phoenix. I love section 8 because of the following:
-you get at most of the guarantee money from the gov
-tenant must keep the place in decent shape
-tenant can’t have illegal substance (drug)
-tenant can be removed from section if don’t comply so this automatically forced the tenant to be on their best behavior.
-tenant can’t trash your property because this will affect their ability to rent on the next property. You as the landlord, can check up their rental history.
