Section 8 housing rules can be confusing, especially when an inheritance is involved.
In this episode, Mike Haslam and Taylor Stone discuss how subsidized housing works, what changed under the new regulations, and why inheritances can create serious problems for people receiving government benefits.
They walk through asset limits, income considerations, and how proper estate planning including special needs trusts can help protect housing, Medicaid, and other benefits.
This is an important conversation for families planning ahead and for anyone with loved ones who rely on government assistance.
