I'm buying an AFH through CHOW (Change of Ownership)

  • Requires an AFH license application
  • Applicants must meet qualification and licensing requirements
  • Check the history and current status of the home you are interested in buying. Some AFHs have issues such as
    • limits on the type of residents the AFH can accept due to structural or other issues, or limits on who can provide care.  These must be posted in the AFH.
    • outstanding enforcement
    • exemptions to a specific WAC requirement
  • Check the AFH Locator to view limits and enforcements issued within the previous three years, and check with the home's current owner about any ongoing limits or exemptions and any outstanding enforcement on the current license.
