12 month rent rises as of 29 July 2024. Rent increases will only be allowed once every 12 months. For periodic rental agreements (with no end date), the minimum 12-month time frame between rent increases will apply from 29 July 2024, regardless of when the agreement was signed.
(Effective January 1, 2028.) (1)(a) A landlord may not evict a tenant, refuse to continue a tenancy, or end a periodic tenancy except for the causes enumerated in subsection (2) of this section and as otherwise provided in this subsection.

3. Washington state eviction laws are changing. Statewide, in 2024 landlords and tenants will be able to request that their eviction hearing is held remotely. The courts will need to grant a request unless there is a reason for needing them to attend in person.
Landlords must give 120 days notice for the termination of month-to-month tenancies before major building changes that require tenants to leave the building. Previously, 20 days notice was required. As a reminder, an owner or immediate family needing to occupy the unit doesnt qualify as change of use.
If they decide not to renew the lease, they must provide 60 days notice. This will give you time to start marketing the property and hopefully find a new tenant to move in as soon as they leave.
