Getting Section 8 tenants into your property???

[Sah S!NCere]

Hey,

Whats going everybody. I got a question about the section 8 process. I really want to know the process before I start going out and purchasing properties for investment purposes only to find out that I'm stuck with a property that is section 8 ineligible.

So here are a few areas I've been thinking buying properties to start out:

1. Southern CA the IE specifically
2. Phoenix area
3. Memphis, TN

I do know that each area has specific rental rates but what I want to know about is about the following:

1. Property inspections if any
2. The marketing side of things (attracting tenants to your property, etc) with the section 8 dept in your area
3. Tenant selection
4. Term of lease, etc
5. Maintenance issues
6. Payments from section 8 Dept.

I started researching this stuff a few months ago but I got stuck with how do tenants know your property is available for them to rent?

Any inside information/knowledge/advice is definitely appreciated

You can call the same office that people apply for assistance and explain what you want to do and they will tell you exactly what is required and what the current rates are depending on the size of the family and the size of the rental.
