What are your rights as a renter? West Seattle workshop announced

If you’re renting, or planning to, and not sure about your rights – you might be interested in the Rent Smart” workshop announced by Solid Ground for later this month:

Monday, January 23rd from 6:30 to 8 pm
Youngstown Cultural Arts Center
4408 Delridge Way SW

In this FREE workshop for current and future renters and tenant advocates, Solid Ground Tenant Counselors will cover information to help consumers:

– Know and assert their rights as tenants
– Navigate the housing search and landlord screening process
– Protect themselves from eviction and housing loss
– Learn how to get deposits back and repairs made

Please note that while Solid Ground’s Tenant Counselors are not attorneys and cannot provide legal advice, they are recognized leaders in tenant education and advocacy.

P.S. Yes, there are landlord workshops, too. Seattle Neighborhood Group offers those. You can contact them to find out when they’re planning the next one – doesn’t seem to be online yet.

    Wish I had had this workshop this before I rented from Dwellings.

    last i looked the laws pertaining to renters in multiple occupancy buildings differed from those in single family homes … even if you think you know what the laws are.. it’s good to read them for yourself before renting…

Sorry, comment time is over.
