Legal Question in Wills and Trusts in Iowa

Which form to use for a will

I currently own property as well as a home in the state of Iowa and would like to prepare a will. At this time, I am living in Louisiana and it may be permanent but am not certain at this time. Should I use an Iowa form since the property being willed is located there or a LA one? Is an attorney necessary or can any notary notorize it? Thanks for your help.
