Buying a duplex with a section 8 tenant.
Hey guys!
I am considering putting in an offer on a duplex in Los Angeles that was built in 1994. This means the building is not under rent control. However, one or maybe both of the untis are section 8. I am planning to live in one of the units. Does anyone know what are the steps in California to evict a section 8 tenant? Thanks in advanced!

Hello,
I also am pro section 8 when it comes to tenants. Right now of all my tenants my top 3 are section 8 tenants. Clean, respectful and your money is guaranteed. I would suggest having them re apply as a tenant when their lease is up and see if they are a good fit or not. As with any tenant there are good and bad, both on section 8 and not. Screening is the key. Good luck!
