What can a landlord charge a Section 8 tenant here?

The FMR is not a cap on what you can ask on the open market. For a Housing Choice Voucher tenant, the local housing authority sets a payment standard, normally between 90% and 110% of the FMR (or of the ZIP-level Small Area FMR where those apply). For a two-bedroom unit in Washington County that is typically $1,251 to $1,527 including utilities. You can charge more than the payment standard if the rent passes the housing authority's rent-reasonableness test and, at move-in, the tenant's share stays within 40% of their adjusted monthly income. Ask the housing authority for its current payment standard schedule.

HUD income limits for Washington County (FY2026)

Income limits decide who qualifies for Section 8 vouchers, public housing and most HUD-assisted units. The area median family income is $110,400 (FY2025: $107,300, +2.9%). Small figures under each limit show the change from FY2025.

Household size	1 person	2 people	3 people	4 people	5 people	6 people	7 people	8 people
Extremely low income (30%)	$23,200 +2.9%	$26,500 +2.7%	$29,800 +2.8%	$33,100 +2.8%	$38,680 +2.7%	$44,360 +2.8%	$50,040 +2.9%	$55,720 +2.9%
Very low income (50%)	$38,650 +2.8%	$44,200 +2.9%	$49,700 +2.9%	$55,200 +2.9%	$59,650 +2.9%	$64,050 +2.9%	$68,450 +2.9%	$72,900 +2.9%
Low income (80%)	$61,850 +2.9%	$70,650 +2.8%	$79,500 +2.8%	$88,300 +2.9%	$95,400 +2.9%	$102,450 +2.9%	$109,500 +2.8%	$116,600 +2.9%

The 30% limit is HUD's “extremely low income” limit: the higher of 30% of median income or the federal poverty guideline, but never above the 50% limit. That is why it can rise faster than 30% of median for larger households. Tax-credit (LIHTC) properties use separate Multifamily Tax Subsidy Project limits.
