Her voucher pays the majority, so it really worked out.

Thanks, Hi Gene,You’re asking great questions, and yes from what I can tell, things are shifting in the Cleveland Section 8 / Housing Choice Voucher market, which could explain some of the issues you’re seeing.Here are several changes or challenges currently in play.

If so, a little over 1/2 of my units are offered to voucher holders in various programs ("Section 8" or Housing Choice Vouchers being most common).

Many voucher holders have very low incomes and work in low-skill roles.

Quote from @Bernard Golden: Hi: Have several wholly-owned properties with Section 8/Housing Voucher tenants.

I also found out that in Montgomery, if you have to evict a section 8 tenant, they can still get another voucher for a new home.

I'm really just trying to find out what people use as a metric for income and credit score for those with section 8 vouchers?

One thing to note, at least in my area, the section 8 voucher amount is ALL UTILITIES (and standard kitchen appliances) INCLUDED.

Section 8 buy-and-hold in Cleveland can work well if you stay strict on location and have a property manager who knows the voucher system inside and out; I’d focus on B- to C+ neighborhoods with stable tenant bases.

Local San Antonio Property Manager here to weigh in....I have a couple of clients who have scored some big wins buying tax foreclosure properties at auction and shortly after setting them up to accept Housing Vouchers- - in certain neighborhoods the voucher allowance is higher than rental comps, so you're able to rent it out for slightly more than market rate.
