Seattle tenant screening process

Cere Davis
Posted

Hi everyone,  

I am new to these forums but am curious if anyone has tried to navigate Seattle's landlord tenant laws?  They appear to me to be somewhat unnavigable.  Of particular note is the "First-In-Time" laws.  Behold.

https://www.seattle.gov/rentin...

I am considering renting to section 8 housing, and watched the latest interview with Joe Asamoah, but I wonder if DC landlord-tenant laws are this crazy?  Point 3, 6 and 7 strike me as particularly challenging.  Oh, and you're not allowed to deny someone with a felony record either...

Any thoughts?

Cere
