The Importance of having a Written Set of Criteria for Applicants!

by Marcia Gohman of the National Tenant Network (NTN)

You are required by law, in both Oregon and Washington, to have written criteria. This criteria should inform the applicant about the requirements needed to be accepted for the property. It should also inform them about things that could result in a denial.

WLA Lobbyists Report (excerpts):
Session & Primary Election Update
from Chester Baldwin & Mark Gjurasic

• Sunday, April 23, marked the final day of the 2023 Washington State Legislature. This was a “long session” of 105 days which started on Monday, January 9 and included the passage of the three major biennial budgets of Washington State, the Operating, Capital and Transportation budgets. The Governor had 20 days after the session to sign bills into law.
• SHB 1074, which requires a landlord to substantiate the cost of any damages withheld from a tenant deposit with estimates received, invoices paid, or other specified documentation. Extends the timeline for a landlord to provide a statement and documentation for retaining any portion of a tenant deposit from 21 days to 30 days.
• The largest fight for Housing Provider space this session was over rent control, with 6 bills being introduced. The 6 bills include: HB 1625/SB 5615, HB 1388, HB 1389/SB 5435, and SB 5697. A coalition of stakeholders worked tirelessly to stop these bills from passing. Due in that part to this massive effort, all 6 bills died before the House of Origin Cut-Off, which is seen as the halfway point in session.
