[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I get that this landlord said they already had a section 8 tenant in the property when they bought it. But as far as future landlords, aren’t there specific inspection requirements, etc to have the house qualified to be section 8 housing. So can’t the landlord just decline to go through the inspection process and therefore doesn’t qualify to be a section 8 landlord?[/quote] Who knows. I know people who have been sued by the district for saying they don’t take housing vouchers. They city is cracking down now. It’s all in the name of fairness or some BS. Essentially if you were some small time person trying to run out your house on craigslist because you need to move and someone emails you and says hey do you take vouchers and you say no you are fair game to be sued by the city. It costs thousands of dollars to fight these lawsuits all because you are a gentrifying, heartless piece of sht who doesn’t want to rent your row house to some family of 10 from EOTR who has a massive section 8 voucher, but a history of putting out cigarette butts on cornice molding and ripping our copper piping. Just take anyone! Just do it! Right? It’s only your stupid house. You should be forced to put anyone up. You are such a bad person if you don’t.[/quote] Trying to “rent” not run. What I mean is that I am a liberal, but also being a landlord, and having seen so much poverty in DC and so much damage done by section 8 tenants that it’s very hard to be pro social justice, and anti-poverty, and want to rent my properties to section 8 tenant. These people have no investment in the property. Many of them just don’t care. It’s not hyperbole to say that cigarettes will get smoked in your house. There will be yelling and drugs and who knows what. There is lying about how many people will actually live in the unit often times. Again, even saying things with truth to them these days, and are painful to hear will have you branded racist or worse. We are now entering a time period in history where critical thinking is being canceled. That sounds like complete Tucker Carlson nonsense, but it’s true.[/quote]
