No, not necessarily because, there are 2 different types of Section 8! First of she’s speaking about a Section 8 Voucher Choice Program which is hard to obtain, especially if you live in a area where there are Section 8 Apartment Complexes and, you can only be enrolled in one low income housing program at a time, for instance if you live in a Section 8 Apartment Complex you cannot apply for this Section 8 Choice Voucher Or When A HUD Housing Assistance Waiting List Comes Open! Section 8 Apartment Complexes your rent is just based on your monthly income and, your not paying on voucher system! With the Section 8 Choice Program and HUD Housing Assistance it’s applying through The Human Resources Services Office/ Community Services in your area, with HUD Housing Assistance---- The HUD Housing Assistance Program A Waitlist has to come open, then, you fill out a application and, get put on waiting list, next time it comes open depending where you are on the list you could then get your assistance! You can apply in one county! I don’t know much about the Choice Program Except What, I know to be the facts of what, I mentioned and, it’s a very hard program to get into for that reason you have to be living in a area where low income housing choices are very limited! So, yeah, there are rules to that program that suck because, it’s just not a program that easily available to everyone!

No vouchers, their government pays 10 days before the rent is due. Tenants don't pay the rent, the government does. Vouchers can get lost or accidentally washed. Most section 8 houses look worse than most people's dog houses. Mothers need to be home with their children, that's where motherhood allowance and child aid comes. No wonder there is a war between section 8 and landlords. You all are being scared by those loser politicians.

My mother's landlord is claiming that my mother owes them $15,000. She always paid her part of the rent. This is why the landlord never took my mother to court because they can send her a bill every month for that amount, but in court, it will come to the light that the issue is between the landlord and section 8. When I talk to the landlord, their representative tells me that she is responsible for whatever amount section 8 does not cover, which makes sense. But, if I pay what section 8 sets me up to pay, then is not my problem that the landlord is not getting what is claimed to be due from section 8. They have to take it up with them. I think the landlord is just waiting for my mother to die so that they can harass me into paying this amount. We have a 99-year lease, and the landlord can't wait for anyone to just die out so that they can rent my mother's three-bedroom apartment for six times the cost of rent, under this lease. Unfortunately for them, I know my rights and if I ever go to court for it, my lawyer will have the case dismissed within minutes.
@MoniqueBurns2 жыл бұрын
Whatever rental amount Section 8 agreed to is what is due the landlord despite the amount Section 8 pays. If the rent is $1,000/mo and Section 8 pays $800 to the landlord, you owe the landlord the other $200. The courts will honor what you agreed to in the lease. Section 8 is just a bank but you are responsible that the full rent is paid. I’ve never heard of a 99 year lease. Wow!
@dcabral002 жыл бұрын
@@MoniqueBurns Well no. Sorry, I have to disagree. First, is a bad analogy. Banks are not public assistance, they do not give you money. They only lend you money which you have to pay back, with interest. If we go to court, it matters that she always paid her corresponding amount set by section 8, because that is what the owner (landlord) and renter agree on by accepting Section 8 voucher. Actually, she can very well lose her section 8 if she ever pays more, because it would serve to prove that she doesn't need the assistance. I thoroughly read the section 8 agreement, which clearly says that any money owed to the landlord by section 8 should be dealt directly between them. Otherwise, why don't the landlord just evict my mother? If the apartment is rented at market value, the landlord would collect $15,000 in rent within three months or less. Section 8 also makes annual inspections, not only to make sure that my mother has not broken any of their rules, but also insuring that the landlord is maintaining acceptable living conditions. We have letters from section 8 giving the landlord 21 days to resolve issues. Let's be honest, the real reason why as an owner/landlord you don't like section 8, is because is more difficult to get rid of a tennant once you accepted the voucher. You can`t penalized a tenant who has followed the rules in spite of you not getting compensated by section 8. That is between you and section 8, and is just not convenient for you that the tenant knows that.
@MoniqueBurns2 жыл бұрын
@@dcabral00 I think we’re actually agreeing. If your mother is paying what is agreed to, then I’m not sure what else the landlord is claiming is due to her. I call S8 a bank very loosely. I only mean they don’t get involved in landlord tenant disputes. They are the institution from which the money comes. It’s too bad San Diego rents are so high. I have family there who I wish would move so they could have more money to live on instead of paying rent. I wish you well. It all sounds stressful to be in an antagonistic relationship with your housing provider.

@@MoniqueBurns I appreciate that. My mother is getting older, and she gets frustrated at times when she sees a monthly bill of over $15,000 in owed rent. But she always paid her agree upon amount. When I call the landlord, their representative tells me that she is responsible for whatever section 8 does not pay, which is simply not true. But this has been going on for years, and never taken to court, or eviction process. I think they are counting on my mother getting frustrated one day, enough to where she would just pay. But the fact of the matter is that she truly does not have the money. I will not give it to her, and I will not pay it either if I take over the apartment when she departs.

I have let people move in before Section 8 said okay. Two problems. I get no rent while I wait on Section 8. Second, what if it doesn’t pass the inspection for some reason? That one isn’t a big concern for us. But what if the tenant lost the voucher and you have no idea? I waited so long once for an inspection. I kept emailing Section 8 and they wouldn’t answer. Finally I got them to answer. “We are not under contract with you so we are not required to communicate with you.” Rude! Turns out the tenant had found a different place. She even paid me $1k holding fee. Then demanded it back. When I said no, she cost me 4 weeks of no income, she came to my office threatening to fight me. I had to hide in my office with the door locked as she was screaming. My husband told me to just give her the money back so she doesn’t hurt us or our property. That was a low moment! But it’s a real problem if your tenant is losing or has lost her voucher and you already have her in your house. Section 8 isn’t under a HAP contract with you yet so they won’t tell you if her voucher is in jeopardy. So don’t do it! We had in person inspections all of 2020 for initial move ins. The annual inspections were delayed though. But they are back in swing now.

I've been signed up with local food bank (92586) for which I received food poisoning 4 different times, I called the food bank to notify them of what happened and I was told we've never heard of such a thing My SLUMLORD is to.put it mildly a dick I have a red tag, a illegal shade building. He repaired 1/2 of the garage Door propblem,, put in new door but not new motor, ca laws according to 5 different contractors he sent out both garage door & moto have to be replaced together ( garage door etc of from esrlt 1960's) I'm between rock & hard spot. Know my SLUMLORD is harassing me because his exterior is falling apart, his venal, plastic is in need of repair. I looked back on my original walk through it said exterior was old plastic vinyl side enetir exterior was damaged and in need of repair. I am absolutely terrified Please help

You can talk with Jay at Section8Consulting.com. He can help you get on Section 8. Or you can apply at other Section 8 offices with open waitlists. AffordableHousingOnline.com. Many people move to a new place just to get a voucher. Once you live there for a year (I think), then you can take your voucher and move back to where you want to live and take the voucher with you. You live in California. Only the super-duper wealthy can afford to live there anymore. And if they're wealthy, they like to move to Texas for better taxes! But California is beautiful. I get it! Good luck.

Well I hope if you intend to be a Section 8 landlord that you care about your tenants and maybe they will care about you and fix things and do what's right for the people that you get money from unlike my landlord I would appreciate having a landlord that cares and does basic maintenance of their house. But I'll never get one cuz I got a red dot cuz I complained I'm on a list for people not to rent to cuz I complained about an issue where I used to live a pipe from the furnace going into the basement like a leech bed under the floor they told him to fix it I was out it took them 6 months cuz I couldn't be homeless I had to be evicted I had kids with me I don't anymore if they screw me one more time I will spend the rest of my life fighting for people's rights on HUD and to fix all the slums across the United States I won't be alive if that ever got done I'm 60 there's the facts about HUD Section 8 you can be a slumlord and it's okay
@MoniqueBurns2 жыл бұрын
It is very hard to find quality housing if you have an eviction on your record. You will probably be damned to slumlords. Sorry to hear you have that on your record. Maybe it will inspire you to work for HUD and help save people from slumlords. There are free legal aid places that need that kind of volunteer. I've thought about it because I hate to hear slumlord stories. It's so wrong what slumlords seem to get away with.

If you buy a rental property with section 8 tenant, how do you inform housing authority to pay the rent to me?
@MoniqueBurns2 жыл бұрын
You need to know which housing authority is paying the rent. Reach out to that office and ask for their new owner paperwork ASAP before the prior owner gets a first of the month rental payment.

It’s not 70\30 of the rent. You have to pay 30-40% of your income to rent. Maybe you need to request a new review of your income.

@MoniqueBurns2 жыл бұрын
There are too many factors to answer that. Section 8 has a whole formula based on your income, the rental amount, the market rental rate, if the landlord supplies appliances and utilities or not, square feet of the house, upgrades to the house. Tenants call me all the time thinking they can afford my house for $800/mo because their voucher price is $800. But what they don't understand is their voucher price is as if the landlord were to pay all their utilities. It's all very confusing.

@MoniqueBurns2 жыл бұрын
A bad section 8 inspector finds little things that are cosmetic just to say they found something. A bad inspector makes the landlord fix all the tenant damages and never holds the tenant accountable.

I want to know if they’re allowed to spy on you ? Like if they’re going to watch and see when I have my kid and when I’m home or not…cause apparently even tho I’m an adult I can’t be gone so many days a week and my kid has to be there so many days a week when he’s almost 18 . I am worried the manager or the neighbor below would end up spying on me or they have cameras, possibly on the property. Like I should still be able to live my life on low income section 8 especially if I’m paying 30% of rent
