Distressed Properties Fix Passes State Senate 48-0!
Today, Wednesday, Feb. 25th, the Washington state
Senate passed SB
5221, the Senate version of the fix to the distressed properties law, by a unanimous
vote of 48- 0!
The bill's prime sponsor, Sen. Rodney Tom, told
us today after the bill passed, "It's really important in these economic times that
those sellers that find themselves in the unfortunate situation of being forced to sell
their home will now have the service of Realtors to help them maneuver through a difficult
selling environment to minimize a very difficult situation."
HB
1132, the House version of the bill, passed the House unanimously last week. Both
versions of the bill will now be sent to the opposite chamber (House bill to Senate,
Senate bill to House) to be considered.
We'll continue to keep you posted as key milestones
are reached with these very important bills.

Equal Opportunity Housing It
is HUD's mission to promote non-discrimination and ensure fair and equal housing
opportunities for all. In an ongoing effort to provide services and activities on a
nondiscriminatory manner and to affirmatively
further fair housing, HUD is charged by law to implement and enforce a wide array of
civil rights laws, not only for members of the public in search of fair housing, but for
HUD funded grant recipients as well. HUD is also charged with ensuring the successful
operation of specific enforcement of housing programs. The array of laws, executive
orders, regulations, etc. are collectively known as civil rights requirements and called
"Civil Rights Related Program Requirements (CRRPRs)."
