Woman Who's Been on Section 8 for 20 Years...

This came across my Youtube feed and I had to share.  20 years on section 8 and she's salty that HARDWORKING people are flocking to the area she wants to live, and landlords don't want to accept her voucher.

20 years!

You can't make this up...

    @Malkia Ra  Anyone who thinks LLs are turning the applicant away due to the voucher has no clue!

    I have section 8 tenants who pay market rent or slightly above. She said clearly that the voucher is $200 or so less than average. When things already aren't cashflowing due to rising costs and rates, landlords have no choice but to maximize and possibly still be looking at a loss.
