Preliminary Notice
Washington
We didnt give Disclosure statement before starting the work RCW 18.27.114
Is the lien cant be placed due to that?
WashingtonI have a building permit service. I applied for the building permit for a client and paid all of the fees. The client is a retailer/tenant and the location of the project is in a shopping mall in Lynwood, WA. I am not getting paid for the work I performed and fees I paid. The amount that is owed is $4,243,64. I did not file any notices. Can I file a lien on the property.
WashingtonIf i contract with the customer directly (I am not a sub) and i did not give customer the model disclosure b4 work started, and the work is only 99% done, can i still send the model disclosure late? or di d i lose all lien rights? Thanks. Kim
WashingtonWe are a Subcontractor primarily working within CA, but we now have a Washington Branch. I see the Preliminary Notice requirements are quite different. I have a couple of questions.
When we have a Subcontract with the General Contractor for commercial work over 60K, do we need to submit a Model Disclosure Statement? If not, why is the requirement for less than 60K, but not over 60K?
Also, the Washington Notice To Owner (Preliminary Notice) which reserves our right to lien. Is this sent for every project no matter the contract sum? Is there a different process or forms if we are contracted with the Owner vs. the GC? Are there different notices depending if the project is Private or Public?
Please advise.
WashingtonWe do work, on malls for example, and will come back several years later to do maintenance work. Would this be considered a new job, or would it be covered under the original preliminary notice?
WashingtonWhat if I didn't send a Model Disclosure Statement to my client in the beginning of the job in WA state but I did send a Preliminary Notice after the job. Do I still have lien rights to file a Mechanics Lien?

WashingtonMy question is regarding Pre-lien notices for Sub-Tiers on a project in WA. We have a sub contractor that has around 34 sub-tiers and 8 of them have filed Pre-Lien notices do we need to collect all 34 or just the 8?
WashingtonHotel Project (Commercial) - Owner signs "percentage of construction" proposal using the AiA Document B102, Standard form of agreement between owner and architect. (2007)
Scope creep starts at 2,000 sf, and finishes at 5,000 sf. A $10,000 difference in professional fees from 2k SF to 5k SF. All 5,000 sf permitted by City of Tacoma.
They are refusing to pay for the final of the initial 2,000 sf draw and the minor additional "sideways" services.
I understand from RCW that I need not file a notice of lien claim. (Direct contract with owner)
Do you agree?
Does this seem like an easy lien to proceed with?
Thanks,
LV Architect
WashingtonWhen clients banks run reports our Notice shows up as a lien with us in 2nd position.
Banks won't proceed if they are not 2nd on the title.
Is there a way to give notice without being placed 2nd on the title?
WashingtonI need help please. A subcontractor filed a lien on my property. The general contractor (who was sent by my homeowner insurance) didn’t pay and went out of business. I never got a pre notice about this lien. He’s filing for labor only but he brought material to do the project at my house. The initial invoice to the general contractor was $1900 and now he’s claiming $2900 because 4 months has passed. Is this legal? Can this lien be invalid?
WashingtonFiled a lien without first filing a prelim notice. I don’t know what I should do. A customer didn’t pay and now I just filed a lien. What Might happen from here? What should I do? Etc. etc. please help
WashingtonIf it needs to be signed by the owner and not the tenant of the building how does that work. I can easily find the name and address of a property owner through county assessor but how would I get the document signed in a timely manner when the only option would be mailing it to them?
