Landlord Is Trying To Charge A Full Month's Rent

[chillboz]

Hello,

Here are the facts of my situation

1) I am a renter in the state of Washington
2) I am in year two of a lease that reverted to a month-to-month after 12months.
3) lease requires 20 days written notice to vacate. I gave notice about 22 days prior to my planned move out date of June 7th.
4) Rent is normally due on 1st of the month. I asked for prorated rent for June 1st to June 7th, landlord says no pro-rating and that I owe her for the whole month of June.

Question: Do I really have to pay for the whole month of June?

That depends if landlord says no prorating and its somewhere in writing and especially on any document you signed may he can
