Local Knowledge

Selling Multifamily In Washington

Every state has its own tax, legal, and market dynamics. A few things we factor into every Washington offer:

  • Washington has no state income tax on wages, which supports in-migration and household incomes.
  • Statewide rent stabilization enacted in 2025 limits annual rent increases for many buildings; we underwrite within the current cap.
  • Washington’s graduated real estate excise tax affects transaction costs on larger sales, and we factor it into offers.
