Landlord Tenant Act revisions allow double deposits refunds
Changes to the Landlord Tenant Act tighten deposit rules and add penalties. Snohomish County mediation director Mike Cummings says landlords must refund deposits within 14 days or risk losing any portion and may be liable to pay up to twice the deposit. The revisions require written contracts and an entry exit inspection report, clarifying non refundable fees and creating criminal penalties for malicious damage. A free July 19 seminar at the Lynnwood PUD Building will explain the changes.
