Been listening to podcasts and doing a lot of reading and it won't surprise anyone that I find this community to be an amazing resource full of some really thoughtful and kind individuals.We are currently making an offer on a piece of land up in the Seattle area (hopefully around $170k) that appealed to us because of it's location for a possible home when we retire.

If so, I'm curious what resources are you using to research the local laws per each city?
