The Official Landlord Registry of The City of Seattle

Know the rental before it knows you. Search an address, see the official Seattle record context, and add a structured account of what renting there was actually like. City records and community opinion stay separate—then become useful together.

Loaded source: Seattle landlord-tenant complaints, notices of violation, and citations, 2015–2025. Full narratives are not republished here.

Rankings below describe the loaded public-record context—not a legal finding and not a “worst landlord” list. Community scores appear only after renters submit reviews.

Built by renter selections

Community experience buckets

Properties and management names move in and out of these buckets as structured reviews accumulate. With no shared backend, this portable build shows reviews saved in this browser only.

Evidence architecture

Two lanes. No blending.

Official administrative records can add context. Renter reports add lived experience. Neither lane silently becomes a legal conclusion.

CITY RECORD CONTEXT

What the address profile shows

  • Count and type of loaded records linked to the address.
  • Recorded status, inspection-result field, year, district, and City record link.
  • Conservative topic flags from complaint text, clearly labeled as text indicators.

A complaint record describes an allegation or request for service. It does not by itself establish that an owner, landlord, or manager violated law.

COMMUNITY EXPERIENCE

What renters can contribute

  • Fast, structured good-and-bad experience selections.
  • A 1–5 rating and optional short narrative.
  • A management-company name as experienced by that renter.

Community material is opinion and user-reported experience. A production launch needs identity controls, moderation, abuse reporting, appeals, and a shared database.

Deposit deadline: this build uses “within the applicable legal deadline.” Current Washington law generally requires the statement, documentation, and refund due within 30 days. Older City records may refer to earlier statutory deadlines.
