Section 8 screening criteria

[Theodore Arzt]

 I’m toying  with the idea of excepting section 8. I know there is good and bad to it. For anybody that does section 8, what do you use for screening criteria? I assume I won’t be able to ask for three times the rent as income.  And I don’t know if I’ll have to lower my standards for credit score. Or is there anything else I need to look at differently for that. 

Also, if anyone is in the Bristol Connecticut area, how has that town been to work with? From what I hear if you have a good inspector section 8 can be good and if you have a difficult inspector it’s not worth it.

Thanks
