Summary
Landlords say the CVR-run Section 8 program is months behind on rent payments, has only one coordinator handling roughly 6,000 landlords, misroutes paperwork between Milwaukee and Georgia, and doesn't understand Wisconsin landlord-tenant law. Tenants also report losing vouchers during staffing changes.
