We got a big rain storm right around peak and a bunch of the leaves ended up on the ground!

The likelihood that you will ever see a dime is super small.The best thing you can do is make sure to file the judgement with the county (or whichever area you need to) for the eviction as well as a judgement for the rent owed.

They said the mold in the garage (basement) that was on tenants shoes and clothing was due to the humid conditions and rain.

  ( oh and to back up we could never serve her so we went for a summary judgement and lost that)  Judge made us advertise .. that cost a bundle.. so now here we are 2 plus years later.. 

I don't need to the vet the info if it's their own account.If a tenant damages a property upon vacating, the landlord can (and should) go and get a judgement against them and record the judgement with the county. 

I assume so because of rain management.

Neighbors put a new wall up so water puddles on our side maybe 20 ft across an inch or two deep when it rains.

But in general terms, Vancouver is a great place to live, but beware of the rain, it gets depressing at certain times of the year.

Temporary periods of inactivity while awaiting materials delivery, lack of rain for roofing, etc. do not interrupt possession. 

These properties ‘may’ have liens, judgements, HOA dues, etc. attached so make sure you have a Title Company perform your search for clean title.
