Landlord Question and Answer Forum

Hello, I have a tenant that has a voucher for section 8 housing. Before I consider her for a tenant for my property, can I require her to undergo drug testing? My property is located in Alexandria, Virginia.

RE: Drug Testing
I do not believe the landlord does the drug testing. People who qualify for section 8, go through a process to qualify, if that state requires drug testing they would be the one's doing the test. I would check your state website.

Feature Spotlight: Why do I need A Lease Package?

Those basic leases you can find in office supply stores or buy from online vendors can look appealingly cheap and easy, but chances are, they don't meet all of the legal requirements for binding leases in your state. If you entrust your rental unit to a stand-alone lease, you may not be fully protected, especially if you wind up in court with your tenant over a contract dispute.

By using our exclusive Lease-Builder Wizard with State Assist, you'll get unmatched convenience, peace of mind, and protection for not much more than other sites charge for a generic lease.
