Using RHAWA Tools: How Can I Get Started Quickly?

Posted By: Denise Myers Education, Membership,

Washington State rental regulations, not to mention the myriad of different local laws, are now among the most complex in the country. Joining RHAWA is the fastest way to get up and running, but all of our classes, forms, and tools can be overwhelming. To make things a little easier for new and returning members, we have a simple two-page checklist that walks you through the decisions and steps for renting out a property. Accompanying this New Rental Checklist, a 90-minute video tutorial, Renting Your Property With RHAWA Tools, shows how to use each RHAWA tool and explains the key concepts of the regulations and best practices along the way. In this checklist and tutorial, we encourage members to complete all of the recommended video training included with the membership when time allows, but in 90 minutes youcan get a solid start. The checklist is printed here, but always make sure to access the current version on our website at the top of the forms page at RHAwa.org/forms.
