Sweeney, J.
We again note that a claim for personal injuries by a tenant can be premised on three distinct legal theories: contract (a rental agreement), common law obligations imposed on a landlord, and the Washington Residential Landlord-Tenant Act of 1973 (Landlord-Tenant Act), chapter 59.18 RCW. In Dexheimer v. CDS, Inc.1 we concluded that the remedies available to a tenant under the Landlord-Tenant Act were limited to those outlined in the statute. We were wrong.
