Don't rent property in Washington without having a thorough understanding of the laws and ordinances of the State, County, and City jurisdictions in which your property is located, and have an attorney on speed dial.

The attorney that does most of my real estate work likes to see the LLC formed in either the state where the property is or where the LLC owner lives.  

Going the attorney route will take time and money, but it could be your best bet if the developer refuses to renegotiate directly.All the best!

If they can't go down, then the attorneys go up and sideways if needed.   

If you used a title company or closing attorney, start with them, right away. 

Talk to you title company or attorney. 

Any help (or referral to a RE attorney would be appreciated)Thanks!

For that determination you need to ask an attorney. :)
