As a landlord myself, I am not understanding why other landlords are hesitant to accept the vouchers. My husband and I rent to housing authority/ section 8 clients only in one of our units. It’s guaranteed rent whereas someone without the assistance can call you and say “I don’t have your money this month”. The tenants have for the most part been really good people. This is heartbreaking 💔

Then you’re 1 of the billions that got lucky. The sales pitch is that you’re guaranteed the rent. The problem stems from the tenants that wreck the place, move others in, refuse to pay their measly part. Are on drugs And deliberately break things then sec8 does their inspection and if you don’t make the repairs in their time frame u don’t get paid. Then it’s repeated again.

But I think those same people, regardless of being on section 8 would have done the same thing even if there was zero assistance with their rent. Bad people are just that.

SOOOOOOOO TRUE!!!!

This happens everywhere!! This NEVER should have happened, but... in 2015, I finally left a very abusive, toxic human. I took our two kids with me, OFC! It was OK because we got into a shelter. We weren't there a full 24 hours when my oldest, a Monkey King Child, fell from the shelter bunk and broke his jaw, three places, very bad. I was nursing my daughter, so I had to pop her off the ta and run to him. Anyhow, after the 10 day stay in the hospital, with a 2 yr old, who fully was ready to tear up life again after day 2.. and an 8 month old, nursing baby.. We had no where to go, we went back to the shelter and I was told they moved us out, we're a liability. Too tired to fight about it. We went to another shelter, thankfully it was quick entry, as it was technically an emergency, no car 2 little kids, only two arms and every "man" for himself.. Any way, They said they needed more room for actual emergency cases and I wasn't willing to say I was disabled or unable to work, so they asked us to move on. I could have easily lied and we'd been fine, but obviously that's not OK. So after moving around, literally here and there, anywhere, we found Family Promise and we were able to actually stay until we got stable, we had to be out the door at 7am and the company would move our stuff, every Sunday, to a new location and transport us yo the "day center" no beds, so no rest... Weeds out the one who are willing to come up...., at that time I had bought a beater with a heater, first investment!! I had to break some rules to get and keep a job, but I did.. I did bartending for two months, saved every penny! An older guy came to the shelter to serve the families meal, (mandatory attendance, even if you have a job) He was a scientist at the biggest company in the next town, He put in an excellent word for me and I got the job!! That means exiting the program. So I found a place, got help with first and last. I put in my 2 weeks, worked 10 days straight over the winter break,everyone was gone and work was my escape, I happily obliged.. My last day there was a Saturday, I moved into our home on Sunday and my new, very structured job Started that Monday morning. Thankfully I had the kids in daycare.. Sorry, I needed to let this out... It's 2022 and I never did get accepted for a voucher. We were homeless for a total of 10 months. The struggles I didn't talk about here are many!!!!! It was so crazy. We made it through, we're still paycheck to paycheck, but life is good and God is amazing! I also had a very horrible custody battle directly after my son broke his job. Mom: homeless, jobless, car less... dad: kept the house and the car and the resources. I fought with truth and won!! He left and still hasn't contacted. No support from him, but one time, ever. I am struggling to forgive fully.

To everyone complaining about the people on Section 8. You do know there is a way to properly vet tenants. Plus not all Vouchers are HCV Some are VASH Vouchers issued through the Housing Authority to disabled veterans and their families. You can also choose to rent to an elderly person as they may take better care of the property. Vet properly people. I use to work with tenants and landlords and I would tell them little secrets to determine what type of person or family would be a good tenant. Also get references from previous landlords. Trust me,if they didn't care for their property the ex landlord will tell. Please stop the blatant classism in the comments. You never know if you'll need help someday.

My Dad never rented to anyone who had a filthy car full of trash - because he knew in 6 months that's how his property would look. Also, he required first months rent, last month's rent plus a deposit. That usually kept the scrubs away. He also had it written into the lease that for each additional person who "moves in after the fact" the rent went up $150. The tenants were actually glad to have that clause because when their freeloader friends & family asked to "stay awhile" they could tell them They couldn't allow that because their rent would go up.

Had she picked the father of her kids based on character rather than superficial things, she'd be in a home and not on TV complaining about what her man (read, the government) isn't doing for her. She needs a husband in the worst way, but her choices and attitude won't allow her to keep out that would rescue her. What's worse is the generational trauma that shes feeding her kids as a function of her choices and what she says and doesn't say away from the cameras. The cycle will continue...

I feel bad for those who are handicapped disabled, and the elderly living on a fixed income, those who seriously need low income/section 8 housing. On the other hand, If you are healthy and able bodied I'm not concerned about them.

As a landlord, I can tell you that section 8 vouchers are usually avoided like the plague. Yes, it's totally unfair and no one should be judged by the amount of money they make. However the simple fact is landlords always end up regretting accepting Section 8 vouchers. Nine times out of 10 the voucher recipients destroy the house, don't pay on time, make way too much noise for the neighbors, the list goes on. It actually really hurts me to turn away someone with a Section 8 voucher because I know that they might be very good tenants and very good people. Unfortunately it's too much of a Gamble and simply isn't worth the risk. You can talk til you're blue in the face about having a heart, ethics and human decency but at the end of the day none of those things pay for my damaged property or loss of income.

Where I live the people on our block are experiencing this with two of our block tenants, and it is GOD awful. On the weekend, here lately, the music from one tenants house is so loud, and it goes on until 3 AM, so if you are trying rest up from your work week, it is impossible. Then they get a little sleep, and start up again the next day, as they did this weekend past, for a few hours, then stop and sleep the rest of the day; thus by then you are so tired when you go to work on Monday, it takes an entire week to caught up with the sleep that you have lost. I don't know what is going on over there, but it was not like that before, maybe once in awhile, but not every weekend. I have said something, although I no longer work, but none of my neighbors say anything, but I have heard them voice disapproval on many occasions. I don't know why they are silent, it baffles me. I guess they like being sleep deprived. Ms. B. Churchill

You do know that the vast majority of people on assistance have jobs, right? Wages have not increased with the cost of living and many people are working poor. I'm college educated and still live on section 8. Social work doesn't pay well at all. I only have one child and I was 30 years old when I gave birth to him. His father is retired military. No one grows up with the goal of being on public assistance.

Gosh, I wonder why no landlord wants Section 8. Duh, years ago my Grandmother who had a soft heart fell for that sad story. Well, after they destroyed the house and left her with 3 cars that didnt run, which was a nightmare for her, she said no more. During the rental interview they seemed very nice but a whole different story after move in. Yikes, poor Grandma. Eventually she sold the property.

I’m in Section 8 for a 18 months, it was so hard to find a place to live, l hate the apartments lam living now but it was the only option l found! Who could help me to find another place better ? I’m 68 years old!

The problem is they have a lot of people who don’t belong in the USA flooding up housing and increasing rents because 20 people living in a house. Can you imagine a bus driver who works for the city can’t pay rent in the city he works for? SMH

@@rihannahaiti5570 A lot of people on Section 8, don't ever get off. There should be a time limit. Section 8, Food Stamps, and Welfare should have time limits and exceptions only made for the elderly (who haven't been lifetime users) and the disabled.

Don't worry Queen. Their world is crumbling daily. I love every bit of it.

People with Section 8 vouchers don't even know that whenever your name comes up on the list and it's your chance to receive your voucher, if you cannot find someone to accept your voucher, you have the right to have your voucher ported out to another jurisdiction within your state, so you can find housing. I first received my voucher in a small town where a very popular college is located and actually almost lost my voucher due to not being able to find housing within the designated time frame because almost every landlord only wanted to rent to college students. It is considered as discrimination to only want to rent a property to a certain class of people, therefore after I wrote the housing authority manager a letter requesting to have my voucher ported out to the specific county within my state that doesnt contain a college and is more suitable to my living circumstances ie; school location, child's daycare, etc, my request had been granted and I was given yet another 60 days to find housing. Don't give up people. Know your rights and stand firm on them. Good luck to all in need!!!

She seems to be trying her best. This pandemic has really taken a toll on many people and businesses. Now some landlord are buying property and raising the rent rate. Taking advantage of the housing market. But, it's hurting people that's trying to hold it together. I really wish this mother the best for her family. GOD still has the victory.

Let’s keep it real about section 8…. For those that know, you know … it’s suppose to be a temporary “hand up” not a “handout”

Damn I hope she’ll be okay

Is so true, I recently received a voucher the only give you 120 days to look for an apartment, knowing there is a waiting list of 6 months and longer by this time you lose your voucher, I have been from room to room, my emotional pet is with my daughter temporarily, I am 62 years old and disabled, to be going trough all this. Is becoming so hard to find a place in so short time.

This is sad how a woman can be a business owner for over 22 years and not have a substantial savings to provide for herself & her children. Sadly this will be a harsh reality for a lot of single mothers that live above their means in order to put on for social media and others. Financial literacy is part of being an adult. It's a shame to drag kids through our poor planning & decision making. I hope she pulls herself out of this & is more fiscally responsible in the future.

@@052970 no it is not a law. The property we own is prime real estate and a second 8 voucher would not enough cover the mortgage. I personally have nothing against section 8. I am so glad we have it but most of the time when a tenant moves out we have to pay $1000.00’s of dollars to get it ready to go back on the market. I know there are good renters out there but my husband and I have had very few in 20 years.

This breaks my heart. Housing is getting worse. I’ve been looking for something affordable for my kids and I and I literally break down every time I search for a place. I’m currently in a place where my landlord is hiking up the rent but has yet to fix anything.

Greed and yet she didn’t start the fire so I see many on here complaining or pasting judgement how many are slum landlords.
