Can a landlord evict you immediately in Washington?

This question is about Washington Eviction Process

No, a landlord cannot evict you immediately in Washington. Written notice and a court process are required before eviction.

For nonpayment of rent, landlords must give at least 14 days’ written notice to pay or vacate. For lease violations or ending a tenancy, notice periods typically range from 10 to 20 days depending on the situation. Evictions for certain types of illegal activity may not require prior notice, but a court order is still required to remove the tenant.
