What are the biggest problems with Section 8 tenants

[Ed McIver]

I'm new to this business but what are the biggest pit falls with Section 8 Tenants? I live in and my rental units are in Maryland.

I inherited a section 8 tenant on a SFH I purchased. Out of my 20+ units, they are one of the easiest tenants. they've been there 4 years prior to me buying the house and I've had it for a year. Not a single request for anything and when I purchased, it was the cleanest rental I've ever seen. A few months after purchase, I put in a request to raise rent from 495 to 550 and it was approved within days, no cost to the tenant. I've never taken and existing unit and converted it to section 8, but sounds like other posters have had issue. I suppose it's a matter of the individual office and the quality of their staff.
