I have a 4/2 single family home in Tacoma. I have had a pretty awful experience with my current property manager who forgot to put my previous tenant on a lease. Any recommendations would be greatly appreciated. 

I'm preparing to sell a property in Washington state and the tenant is being super uncooperative. My real estate agent asked for a copy of the lease to see what the tenant agreed to. I requested a copy from my property manager. The property manager said the tenant is on a month to month so a lease was never signed.

What does this mean for me:

1. Damages done to the property?

2. What rules have to be followed for showing the house?

Any insight or advice would be greatly appreciated.

Thank you for the feedback Nicole. 

Hello, This is my first time selling a property. I purchased a home in Tacoma, Washington very low in 2013. I am attempting to sell the home now with an agent for a substantial markup. My tenant wants to make an offer on the home 2 months from now. I spoke with my listing agent about holding off on the listing until June. I'm getting some of the red flags I've read about in the BiggerPocket books about the agent. Being rushed to complete documents, confusing my property with another, etc. I just don't have enough experience to know if I'm getting the best deal or being over cautious. 

1. Does a listing agent fee of 4% and buying agent fee of 2.5% sound correct for this area?

2. Can I legally install the keybox as well as show the home while I have a tenant inside the property or do I have to wait for them to vacate? 

Any advice would be appreciated.
