Washington Rental Market Snapshot
State-level data DSCR underwriters use to size Washington rental deals.
Washington is a premium-priced jumbo DSCR market dominated by Seattle MSA tech employment. Seattle and Tacoma have just-cause non-renewal restrictions that materially slow tenant transitions. Spokane offers the deepest cap-rate alternative at 7–9% yields. Bellevue anchors premium DC-of-the-PNW LTR pricing.

|---|---|---|---|
| Seattle | $845K | 3.5–4.5% | Largest WA market, tech employment, jumbo pricing, just-cause eviction |

Washington Eviction Timeline & Landlord Posture
How Washington courts handle non-payment evictions, material to DSCR loss-severity assumptions.
Washington requires a 14-day notice for non-payment under 2019 RCW 59.18 amendments. Seattle Eviction Reform Initiative (just-cause for non-renewal) materially slows tenant transitions. King County Superior Court calendars routinely 30–60 days out.
Washington Rate Adjustment vs National Baseline
Seattle just-cause ordinance and 2023 HB 1474 protections modestly increase lender loss severity assumptions.
Final pricing depends on DSCR, LTV, property type, and program. Credit is lender underwriting. Governed best-tier floor 5.80% from rate-floors.json as of August 1, 2026.
