HB 1500 — Concerning resale certificates for units in common interest communities

Engrossed Substitute House Bill 1500 (Rep. Reed, prime sponsor; co-sponsors: Entenman, Gregerson, Peterson, Fosse, Farivar, Doglio, Alvarado, Hill, Berry, Simmons, Ormsby, Macri). Amends RCW 64.90.640 (Unit resales — Resale certificate). The WA.gov statute page for RCW 64.90.640 carries an explicit notice: "*** CHANGE IN 2026 *** (SEE 1500-S.SL) ***" indicating that this bill modifies the resale certificate requirements. The specific amended language will be captured via fetch_statute_snapshot once the effective date (June 11, 2026) passes and the WA.gov page shows the new statutory text. The companion LawChangeEvent (created at the time the bill was tracked) flags all 11 dependent ContentCitations across the WA resale certificate concept article, the B2B operational blog guide, the WA HOA Law Changes 2026 article, and the SB 5686 collection-changes article for SME re-verification when the amendment takes effect.
