re: anybody here has section 8 rental properties?

To become a section 8 landlord, contact your local parish/county housing authority. It can provide the paperwork you need to complete & advise you about program participation. Some housing authorities maintain lists of participating landlords & vacancies as well.

Do know that your property will be inspected before you can participate in the program, and it will be reinspected annually. Health & safety requirements are fairly strict and can seem nitpicky, but aren't unreasonable. Stuff like interior handles on closet doors, windows that remain up on their own (for emergency egress), working smoke detectors, broken outlet & switchplate covers, etc. can cause a property to fail inspection...you get an abatement period to fix stuff, though.
