Subject: [WSBARP] getting family members out - UD

Mom let adult children reside in her residence and now are behind on the agreed upon rent (oral agreement).

I am assuming that an UD action will work  under RCW 5912 mainly because it doesn’t fit the definition of a Dwelling unit in 59.18.
I also assume that we can’t ask for attorney fees because of a lack of an agreement and it is provided for not in 59.19

Your thoughts?
Josh
