Seattle property rental newbie

Hello,

I own rental properties in Tacoma, WA and have a system in place for objectively screening/signing qualified tenants. 

My neighbor is moving to NY for a couple years and would like for me to manage the rental of his house.

Are there are factors I should consider for screening/placing a tenant in Seattle versus Tacoma?

Are there any suggestions for accessing a Property Management contract to use between my neighbor and myself?

Thanks, Chris

@Chris Stromdahl 

I may be wrong  but I think in Washington you either need to be related to be licensed to be a property manager.  I would confirm that first.
