Owners could not break even on that investment.

A landlord does not normally do the day to day chores like unstopping a clogged toilet and certainly would never do a chore like unlock a door for a drunk tenant. Chances are the tenant would not even know the landlord.
Section 8 isn't the value of the house that is being advertised for rent. It is the monthly rent. Again, In Virginia our Real Estate Company owned multiple homes for Section 8 housing. The rent ranged from 750.00 month to 1400.00 month...no problem with having even the brand new homes put in the Section 8 pool.

I myself choose not to rent out our duplexes in Virginia through the program-due to constant inspections and turn over with tenant issues. However, for those in need it is a great problem--

As far as the Blue/Green card- simply call Sales Office for confirmation on the deed/spouse rules.
