Re: Section 8

Yes. You may proceed as any other landlord regardless of the assistance. Demand the property back in writing by a certain date. If you tenant does not leave by that date, file a dispossessory action in magistrate court.

If you would like to discuss any issues further, please feel free to contact my office. My contact information is below. Thank you.
