[WA] Can a landlord create a new one-month lease with higher rent and deposit following tenant-caused damage?

Hello. I have a short-term tenant who was displaced due to a fire in her home. Her insurance is paying the rent. She has damaged the property (floors and furniture that we know of so far) due to unsanitary pet conditions. Her lease is up October 14th, but the housing company in charge of locating homes is requesting an extension. I cannot extend for as long as they need, but I am hoping to rent for one more month vs. having to evict her. If I allow the current lease to expire, can I do a new lease for one month with a new rental rate that is higher than the current one, as I gave them a steep discount, and a higher security deposit equal to one month’s rent? I am in WA state, Spokane.

[WA] How do I properly execute and record a transfer on death deed for my wife who is currently on her death bed?

Hello, my wife and I live in California and have 3 children. She is in the hospital dying from cirrhosis of the liver. She may not live much longer. She owns a house outright in Washington State (Liberty Lake, WA – Spokane County). I filled out a Transfer on Death Deed (TODD) that I’m going to take to her to have her sign, but I understand I probably need to have a notary there to witness. I just want to clarify all procedures needed to successfully get the TODD signed (in presence of a notary) and then recorded in Spokane County, Washington — hopefully before her death. Please advise, thank you.
