Timing will make a big difference leasing this SFH in Seattle— if possible, aim for your vacancy to hit the market ~May 15th to June 15th, maximizing time on market for a June / July lease start date— this will give you the largest tenant pool, lowest vacancy time & highest rent.

Consider getting a statement signed by all parties which states that everyone has agreed to terminate the current lease early on X date and all obligations by all parties have been paid in full and that the deposit will be kept by the landlord and will be applied to the new lease.
