Oscar,

The SOL on a written agreement (promissory note or deed of trust) is 6 years from date of default.

Subject: [WSBARP] SOL Calculation for Foreclosure Action

Dear Listmates:

I know in another state, there were some debates on when the SOL should start running for foreclosure actions (for example,  among the last payment date by the borrower, the acceleration payment date, the first date to fail to make a full monthly payment, etc).   What date does WA use to calculate the SOL of a foreclosure action?  Many foreclosure actions that I have seen are well within the SOL period, but I still want to calculate it correctly.  I apologize if this question sounds too basic.

Kind regards,

Oscar Yang
