Basically, making the home section 8 ready means making it meet the federal housing quality standards, in essence, making sure that everything works and that everything is up to par. You also want to make sure that the rent is reasonable -- that is, that it is within the fair market rent value in your area. If you have any questions, call your local Housing Authority, which can help.

You, the landlord, have to be willing to accept section 8 vouchers. This means that you will abide by the rules under the federal guidelines that apply. In return you are guaranteed to be paid the housing assistance payments , on behalf of the tenant , like clockwork. For example, if the Housing Authority fails to pay you their portion of the rent you may not be able to go after the tenant for the same. and, if you own several pieces of property, you must charge the same amount of rent that you would charge anyone who would not have voucher assistance.
