Washington’s Eviction Resolution Pilot Program

At Sound Point Property Management, we are always on the lookout for helpful resources for landlords and tenants regarding COVID-19.

We wanted to make sure you are aware of the Eviction Resolution Pilot Program; ​Helping Tenants and Landlords avoid Eviction Proceedings during COVID-19

From their website:

“The objective of the ERP is to:

  • Bring all parties to the table with the assistance of qualified and trained Eviction Resolution Specialists;
  • Explore the amount of rent arrears, the current and prospective circumstances of the tenant, the availability of rent and other assistance to cure or partially cure the arrearage;
  • Discover a range of other terms that might resolve the matter in a way that allows the tenant to retain housing (and avoid the need for filing of an unlawful detainer action).”
