Lien File Fee increase

Lien Fees will be going up starting July 27, 2021, due to the Washington State recording fee increase of $100 per document. This increase is at the direction of HB 1277, passed during the 2021 state legislative session. The surcharge will fund state and local programs that promote low-income housing, eviction prevention, and homelessness services.
