Cash for Keys or Eviction in Washington State?

[Monika L.]

Hello All,

I have a property in Everett WA, and the tenant is not moving out.  Annual lease expired on March 31st, and they were given the appropriate amount of advance notice that the lease will not be renewed since I have to sell the house.   Tenants were supposed to move out on Mar 31, but has made no attempt to move.  They have also not paid the March rent, nor April, for that matter. I'm told by my PM that the eviction process could take up to 90 days (especially with the backlog after the eviction moratorium ended last year) and costly.   So I'm considering offering cash for keys as I'd like to put the house on the market before the market starts to cool.

Does anyone have any insights on what might be an appropriate amount to offer?  Also, I've read some people suggesting starting the eviction process simultaneously, in case the tenant fails to move out at the agreed upon time.  Any insight or advice will be much appreciated!
