Property values in NOLA/East fixing to PLUMMET...Sec 8 may be cut to 2 years

As of August 2025, there is a proposal (Still ONLY a proposal) that would impose a two-year time limit on Section 8 rental assistance for households that do not include a senior or a person with a disability. This means that households not falling into those categories would only receive assistance for two years before it would be phased out or they would become ineligible.
Currently, Section 8 allows families to receive assistance for as long as they are income-eligible and fulfill their tenant obligations, with no time limit imposed.

How would that reduce property values?

Uhh like every child of section 8 color is marked as intellectually disabled
The parents get a check and the school gets a check and everybody’s happy

As a white liberal male. I understand what those blacks need more than anyone. We need to do our best to keep those people in Section 8 housing b/c of racism.

Where's the list of acceptable disabilities?
If missing a leg below the knee is on there, expect a lot of 'accidents' that require amputations.

Less section 8 isn't going to reduce property values.

The housing problem in New Orleans isn’t really related to section 8. The good areas in New Orleans are still going to be getting crazy prices. Maybe this will allow for more gentrification, that could be a positive I suppose.
Buyers don’t want to move to the East though whether it’s Section 8 or just a regular rental.

Those that scheme the system can easily manufacture a disability. The term “disability” really needs to be re-defined or at least walked back to what it meant 20 yrs ago.

So there is hope for Tigerland?

You serious?
This is going to remove the payments from circulation.
That is going to make rents decrease
Rents decreasing will be directly reflected in the underlying value of the property.

In your experience, does section 8 housing generate more or less value to homes within the surrounding area?

"Oh honey look, this neighborhood is full of section 8 housing. We should look there to invest. After all, more section 8 housing is just going to raise all property values..."
You are trying to repair a window on the titanic.
