RHAWA has existed in some form or another since 1935, starting out as a Seattle based association that grew into a regional resource throughout the Puget Sound area. In an effort to serve all those in the rental housing industry regardless of geographic location in Washington, RHAWA expanded to become a statewide association in 2012. Currently made up of more than 5,000 members, we are the premier rental housing association in Washington State. Over the past 80 years RHAWA has evolved into one of the most valuable resources for independent rental owners and managers.
