2 year lease in Seattle Washington

Hi, I am a first time landlord in Seattle, Washington. I own a condo. My tenant will be signing a two year lease. I have been told it needs to be notarized. I am wondering who needs to be present at the notary. Does it need to be notarized and is it just the lease that needs to be notarized? Anything else specific to offering a two year lease? Advice? Thanks

I've never come across the notory requirement. That doesn't mean it doesn't exist. Here's a site that might interest you. http://apps.leg.wa.gov/RCW/default.aspx?cite=59.18 ...... I do have a question. Why do you want to lock yourself into a 2 yr contract? ----- Disclaimer: Since I’ve been answering a lot of questions, I thought I would make the following statement. I’m not affiliated with EZlandlord Forms. I’m just here (not sure how long) to help those that have questions. Having 40+ yrs with Rental Property and done well, it’s my way of “Pay it Forward (check out the movie).” However, it is up to you to become familiar with your State/Local laws. Also, since State/Local laws vary, you should check with a Real Estate Attorney. I always like to know if the suggestions I offer are helpful. Feel free to comment anytime. Thanks in Advance.
