It would be an eviction if the tenant does not cure the problem/behavior, AND stays in the unit, AND you take it to court and the judge rules in your favor.That said,  definitely do what you have already started - contact an attorney as this sounds complicated,   with what sounds like a problematic tenant (even before the flood) and some management missteps.I'm pretty sure the way it works in WA is if you have a lease that does not explicitly require the tenant to vacate at the end of its term,   then it is considered to convert to a month to month tenancy upon end of its original term. 

well without dual agent complexity, this is the behavior of 88.88% of bay area realtor anyway.It's almost like Mafia Cartel in disguise here, mostly bad actors LOLI have been treated worse and give 'em my middle finger

Raleigh was so bad, it would not surprise me if we see some investigation for bad behavior. 

There are penalties for not displaying a current tax sticker on the mobiles, but they're not enforced either.I think the current year's taxes could be appealed, but they won't do anything for the arrears.Thanks again.

-Carefully review the lease agreement you have with the tenant to see if there are any clauses related to behavior, harassment, or violation of terms.

We offer 4 different payment methods to our tenants: Online ACH via our PM software (no charge) Deposit @ our bank ($3 charge) Credit Card ($5 + cc fees) Mail ($10 charge)Notice we charge a fee for the less desirable options to encourage the behavior we want:)

I don't reward bad behavior.

is it a civil matter ( small claims) or can the city line like a code violation.I bet tomorrow you will see 1000 landlords in pioneer square demonstrating breaking windows and doing all manner of dectructive behavior

Hyperinflation or high inflation for that matter is not always from money supply anymore. from behavioral economics we know inflation can be demand driven as described by Khan in 1975 called adaptive expectations which is what happening today. consumers expect higher prices, so consumers buy more now in anticipation driving up prices and companies charge more knowing consumers expect higher prices and will pay higher prices.

My pilots license is good but I need a biannual for my "IFR " rating and am working on that currently. although my plane's MFD ( multi function display went TU) and that's 20k to replace..
