Washington Month-to-Month Rental Agreement

A Washington month-to-month tenancy continues until someone ends it with proper notice. A tenant may end a month-to-month tenancy with at least 20 days’ notice before the end of the period. After 12 months, a landlord generally needs a qualifying just-cause reason (Wash. Rev. Code §§ 59.18.200, 59.18.650). Washington does not set a statewide maximum security deposit.
