Your initial agreement could be extended in a month to month fashion. At the original rent plus $200. Should your landlord want to increase the month to month rent, they need to give 60 days notice. The new rent for renewal notice doesn’t matter because that’s a separate issue.

That’s not correct. First, you said “could be” but in reality is IS automatically renewed unless either party cancels in writing at least 20 days (tenant) or 60 days (landlord).
The notice was for price increases for future renewals. The automatic conversion of the fixed lease to a month to month lease is considered an “automatic renewal” - as stated in the clause shown by OP. The notice of rent increase would apply to the month to month automatic renewal.
It is valid. I’m not saying it’s not shitty, but according to RCW and CoT law it is.
