Unfortunately, due to Governor Inslee's proclamation on the eviction ban expansion, there is nothing we can do to fight it. All the courts are closed and bringing on a lawsuit would be very expensive. All we can do is follow the Governor's demands. As landlords, all you can do is work with your tenants by doing a payment plan in writing and finding out what they can afford to pay. Please note that your tenants are still responsible for rent, they just cannot get evicted for non-payment of rent at this point in time.
We also encourage landlords to sign up through the Landlord Mitigation Fund. This is a program through the Washington State Department of Commerce, which provides financial assistance to landlords.
