Yes, you have to sign a lease.
Security deposits varies by property and location.

Contact the onsite manager or main office. A late fee is applied.
The pet policy depends on the terms in each specific lease agreement. When you already have a pet and you want to add an extra one, please call our office first. We will process every request separately depending on the lease terms.
No, you would violate the lease agreement terms.
A notice to enter must be posted. If there is an emergency per Washington state law, we are allowed to enter the unit.
Yes, all the tenants need to have renters’ insurance.
In Washington, a minimum of 90 days' written notice before a rent increase takes effect (RCW 59.18.140). The exception is housing where your rent is based on your income, where 30 days applies. Some cities require longer. See our Washington landlord-tenant law reference.
Rent cannot be raised at all during the first 12 months of a tenancy. After that, in any 12-month period, the increase is capped at 7% plus the Consumer Price Index or 10%, whichever is less (RCW 59.18.700). The Department of Commerce publishes the figure annually — 9.683% for 2026 and 10% for 2027. Some properties are exempt under RCW 59.18.710, and an exemption has to be claimed with its supporting facts in the notice itself.
Within 30 days of the tenancy ending and you moving out, your landlord must either refund the deposit or give you a full, specific written statement of what was kept and why (RCW 59.18.280). Deposits cannot be withheld for ordinary wear and tear from normal use.
Usually yes. On written request you may pay deposits, non-refundable fees and last month's rent in installments — three equal monthly payments on a lease of three months or longer, two on a shorter one (RCW 59.18.610). A landlord may only refuse where the combined deposits and fees are 25% or less of the first month's rent and last month's rent is not due at the start. No extra fee or interest may be charged for choosing installments.
Only if a written rental agreement clearly says so. Under RCW 59.18.285 a non-refundable fee cannot be called a deposit, and if the written agreement does not clearly identify it as non-refundable it must be treated as a refundable deposit and returned to you.
Because Washington requires it, and because it protects you. A landlord may not collect a deposit at all without a written rental agreement and a signed, dated checklist describing the condition and cleanliness of the unit, and you are entitled to a copy (RCW 59.18.260). It is the document that shows what was already damaged before you moved in, so fill it in carefully and keep your copy.
No. Washington is a just-cause state: a tenancy may only be ended on one of the grounds listed in RCW 59.18.650, and the notice period depends on the ground — from three days for waste or nuisance up to 90 days where the owner or their immediate family is moving in or a single-family home is being sold. The notice has to state the facts specifically enough for you to respond.
Submit maintenance requests through your resident portal so the request is timestamped and tracked, or call us during office hours — and for anything urgent, call. Put anything significant in writing and keep your own copy, including photographs where the problem is visible. A clear written record is what makes a repair history easy to establish later. Contact our team if you are not sure whether something qualifies as an emergency.
