You should not discriminate simply on the basis of having a housing voucher.

Does this plan make sense for CMHA / voucher / section 8, or is 12’ X 13’ too small for a LR?

Across the board, I never had any issue renting out my units to voucher holders.

Anyone hear or having issues with CMHA not funding section 8 vouchers?

The reality is that the Gross S8 Rent amount on an S8 voucher includes all utilities.

Verify Section 8 rents before you walk the property.We only look at deals where we already know the realistic voucher rent for that bedroom count and zip code.

When you get the lease and estoppel, read them slowly and carefully.You want to know:How much Section 8 actually pays versus how much the tenant paysWhen the lease actually endsWho pays which utilitiesWhen the last inspection wasWhether the seller made any “side deals” (you’d be surprised…)Those little details matter a LOT with voucher tenants.2.

Hi everyone,For landlords in Cook County, Illinois who rent to Section 8 (HACC Housing Choice Voucher) tenants:If I already have a tenant in place, am I allowed to increase the rent to the current Fair Market Rent according to the Housing Authority of Cook County?

If he is on 100% voucher I would take him in as long as he passes your other screening requirments.

I’m exploring whether AI could help cut down on the back-and-forth, but trying to validate whether RFTA is actually the biggest bottleneck.For landlords here who take vouchers - what slows you down the most?
