Hi All,

My Tennant is taking me to Washington small claims court, to ask for Security deposit full refund because I got late to pay ( paid on 26th day, instead of 21st day)

- due items included Past due rent, Tennant did not pay, and now asking it back!

- damages - to roof from Antenna, Ruined lawn by pet urine and bug patched walls that need to be repainted.

2 questions - did anyone had experience of small claims court in Washington, by law do I need to refund everything if I am late beyond 21 days. ( everything was deducted from receipts)

Does the judgment against me go on Credit history? will it impact my ability to make future loans ?
