Finding renters.... section 8 or no .. Minnesota
Working on getting my SFH in St.Cloud MN up to speed and rented out. seeing if anybody has had good/bad experience with section 8. Been told to avoid it at all cost, and others have told me do it just make sure to get a nice big damage deposit.
House i'll be renting out will be in the the middle/lower income neighborhood, blue color family.
3 bedroom, 1 bath, fenced in back yard, 1 garage shooting for $1,200 a month (I'll pay water/garbage)
Plan to manage it myself since this is my only one, and its close by where I live.

I have one property with a section 8 renter. What is not commonly known is that some section 8 applicants work, but just have an income below what is needed to support their family. My section 8 tenant gets about 25% of her rent paid for by HUD. She is a great tenant.
I screen her just like any other applicant. The prior landlord, who I know a little bit, told me she was a good tenant, and she had been there over 4 years. Just check them out.
