Can my landlord enter without notice in Washington?
No. Under RCW 59.18.150, a Washington landlord must give at least 2 days' notice to enter for repairs or inspections, and at least 1 day's notice to show the unit to prospective tenants or buyers. Entry must be at reasonable times, with emergencies the only exception.

A landlord who enters repeatedly without proper notice can be liable, and the tenant may have remedies for the intrusion.
