Section 8 discrimination laws in King County, WA

[Tamar Mar]

We are getting ready to rent out our first home in the Seattle area, and we just learned that there is an anti-discrimination law in King County regarding Section 8.  I have been telling people that we are not accepting Section 8 (oops!?).  The article my husband read indicated that landlords cannot disqualify on the basis of Section 8 alone.  Rather, there has to be other disqualifying factors in addition to, say, the 3x rent monthly income.  We have a specific set of criteria spelled out for renters.  Just wondering how others have gotten around this legally if you have not wanted to accept the vouchers. 

Thank you!
