This is an important message from Solid Ground:
You can take a minute to make a phone call to improve the rights of renters and low income people in Washington. Have you ever paid over and over for screening costs, only to be denied housing without being told why? Solid Ground is working to pass a law that will make tenant screening affordable, accurate and transparent. This law will ensure that tenants only pay once for screening costs and that all the information is accurate. Call your State Representatives and tell them to pass HB 2622, the Fair Tenant Screening Act. You can leave a message with your two state Representatives at the state legislative hotline number: 1-800-562-6000. Please call 1-800-562-6000 and ask your state reps to vote YES on HB 2622, Fair Tenant Screening Act.
Thank you. Only if people speak up will we be able to pass this important law.

A landlord with a tenant in breach is entitled to evict the tenant, however, and still recover future rent, if instead of terminating the lease he or she instead terminates the tenant's right to possession of the property. However, when any tenancy finally comes to an end, it is the duty of the tenant to set free the property to the landlord giving him a property that is unoccupied and subject of the lease, as one with all buildings, improvements and fixtures that he was not at liberty to remove. If the tenant has sublet the premises or part of them, it is his duty to get rid of his sub-tenant before his own tenancy ends. Visit Tenant Arrears for more information.
