And what is a "government subsidized home" anyway?

Section 8 housing...a type of Federal assistance provided by the United States Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) dedicated to sponsoring subsidized housing for low-income families and individuals. It is more commonly known as Section 8, in reference to the portion of the U.S. Housing and Community Development Act of 1974 under which the original subsidy program was authorized.[1] The United States Code (the compilation of current U.S. federal laws) covers this program in Title 42, Chapter 8, Section 1437f.

Thanks Turf. Does it apply to single-family homes?

I think whoever owns the home has to agree to rent to a section 8 person or family.

Owner applies to HUD and gets told what the fair value of renting the house is going to be...say $500.

Renter then goes through a means testing to see what they can pay...say $100

Then HUD pays the difference...$400

As far as I know any owner can apply to rent to Section 8 families. It works out for the owner because he KNOWS he'll be getting at least a partial payment, and if the renter doesn't come up with their share HUD kicks them out.

Here's the link in Wiki: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Section_8_(housing)

This is a real creepy post. You have got some real issues doggie. As if anyone is shaking in their boots about have to prove something to YOU. :142smilie

It was a nice post though. Same ol' doggie deflection. Too scared to answer the question at hand so we get some name calling from the 'moral majority'. Too bad you have no morals.

I'll let you get back to stalking KC and me and whomever else you have been dreaming about. Remember its tap twice and slide doggy.
