CORE Series: Southwest WA | Spring

Running a rental property in Washington State means navigating some of the most detailed and actively enforced housing laws in the country. This Saturday morning session is designed for rental property owners and managers who want clear guidance on what the law requires—and how to operate day-to-day with confidence.

Participants will learn the key state and local laws that regulate rental operations, including tenant screening, fair housing, lease requirements, notices, deposits, maintenance obligations, entry rules, and enforcement risks. The course emphasizes practical best practices that reduce friction with residents, prevent costly mistakes, and support smooth, professional operations.

We will also cover common compliance pitfalls, the financial and legal consequences of getting it wrong, and proven protocols that help owners stay organized, consistent, and defensible if issues arise. By the end of the session, owners and property managers will have a stronger understanding of their responsibilities, clearer operational processes, and greater confidence in managing rentals within Washington’s regulatory framework.

Each session in the CORE Series offers 2.5 hours of practical, in-person education with time for questions, a convenient Saturday morning schedule, opportunities to connect with peers, flexible registration options, and light refreshments to make learning easy and accessible.
