Event Details

Since introduced in Seattle over 40 years ago, "Just Cause Eviction" laws restrict the rights of the landlord to terminate month-to-month tenancies. This concept has now spread across the west coast, with many variations. First the State and now several Washington cities have developed their own list of just causes for terminating tenancies. Many have extended this protection for tenants in fixed term leases, taking away the last safety net for property investors who need to maintain control over the usage of their property. Christopher Cutting, Attorney and RHAWA Board VP will explain this complicated web of state and local regulations and how to navigate them.
