Mattausch Rental Properties is small and family owned - we've been managing our own north Seattle properties since the 1960s, and we pride ourselves on providing our tenants with both quality houses and responsive, ethical property management. References from the previous tenant here and elsewhere available after you've arranged a showing. We are currently looking for a one year lease starting by December 15th, though we may likely soon decide to accept January 1st. If you cannot start a lease until after that date you are still welcome to see the home, and we can likely reach a compromise. Last months' rent and refundable deposit in the amount of one month's rent due at move in or via payments over as many as six months. Prior to applying, at least one applicant must have toured the house (videoconference with a friend on site is ok). Please request the application link after your tour. We consider applicant groups not exceeding four adult residents. Tenant pays all utilities. SPU (water/sewer/garbage) was $91 to $133/mo and SCL (electric/heat) between $42 to $191 in 2020, though we hope the weatherstripping we installed brought that down a bit. Tenant is responsible for keeping the lawn mowed (mower available provided), and must obtain renter's insurance (around $12/month). We rent to all qualified applicants and must conduct a thorough review of a fully completed application before a determination may be made. Either the Lease or Agreement to Enter Into Lease (both of which require a $1000 payment toward the deposit to bind the agreement) must be signed within 24 hours after the application is accepted to maintain your place in Seattle's First In Time application scheme. Best of luck to you in the search for your next home.
