[WSBARP] Evictions

[Scott Russon]

Does the 90 Day Notice to Sell under RCW 59.18.650(e) require an Affidavit by the landlord, or is the Affidavit requirement gone with the moratorium end?  Can it now instead just be part of the Notice language?

Also, if a tenant is arrested for drugs in the rental unit, is RCW 59.18.180(3) still available?  Or does RCW 59.18.650 override this section, since 'drug-related activity' is not one of the listed reasons for which you can evict under subsection 2.

RCW 59.18.180<http://app.leg.wa.gov/RCW/default.aspx?cite=59.18.180>
(3) If drug-related activity is alleged to be a basis for termination of tenancy under RCW 59.18.130<http://app.leg.wa.gov/RCW/default.aspx?cite=59.18.130>(6), 59.12.030<http://app.leg.wa.gov/RCW/default.aspx?cite=59.12.030>(5), or 59.20.140<http://app.leg.wa.gov/RCW/default.aspx?cite=59.20.140>(5), the compliance provisions of this section do not apply and the landlord may proceed directly to an unlawful detainer action.

Sincerely yours,
