Renting out to Section 8 HUD Tenants

[Robert Chaiton]

Hey everyone, I have a few questions about an investment opportunity I am looking into. The specs are: it’s a 2-family property: 1 unit is a 2 bed 1 bath and the other unit is a 3 bed 1 bath.

HUD is 2700 for a 2 bedroom and 3375 for 3 a bedroom. The wrinkle in this deal is I am going to be living in the 3 bedroom unit so my questions are;

1. Can I rent out one section of my duplex to HUD tenants?

2. If I only want to take 1 bedroom, could I rent out the individual bedrooms to HUD tenants within the same unit as me.

1. yes,

2. no.
