State Specific Clauses

WA State Assist

With 24 hours written notice, the tenant shall not unreasonably with-hold consent to the landlord to enter into the dwelling unit in order to inspect the premises, make necessary or agreed repairs, improvements, supply necessary or agreed services, or exhibit the dwelling unit to prospective or actual purchasers, workers or contractors.

The landlord may enter the dwelling unit without consent in cases of emergency. "Emergency" means a sudden, generally unexpected occurrence or set of circumstances demanding immediate action.

Being a landlord is by no means a hands-off job. Sometimes landlords must enter the rental property; for example, the landlord may need to make repairs, show the property to a prospective tenant, perform inspections, or enter the unit at the tenant’s request. However, before a landlord may enter into the occupied rental property it is important and often required, to notify the tenants. This ezLandlordForms Notice to Enter form allows landlords to provide their tenants with proper written notice before entering the premises. Each state and province has its own laws for when a landlord may enter, for what purpose, and how much advance notice is required. This Notice to Enter form allows landlords to list the reason of entering.

A busy landlord can complete this straightforward document by completing a few simple steps. Using our auto-fill technology, when you select the tenant and the property address, the full mailing information will be inserted into the final document where required. The landlord can also indicate the reason for the need to enter the unit. Additionally, the document wizard prompts the landlord to insert the date and time or time range when the entrance will be required. The landlord’s phone number, as documented in the landlord’s ezLandlordForms account, is also automatically included in the document. This is convenient to be sure the tenant can easily contact the landlord regarding the entry that is required.

This form fulfills the criteria set forth by law in most jurisdictions for property entrance notification. The document also reminds tenants that cooperating with a reasonable request for entrance is part of the terms of their lease agreement.

A landlord will provide this form to all tenants to give notice requesting entrance to the property.

WARNING: It is important to follow your state's requirements before entering the leased premises.
