Happy 2026, everyone! š
This year is an exciting one for Ly Le Real Estate as we officially step into building and listing new construction homes across the Seattle, Eastside and South King County.
⨠This weekās spotlight: DADUs (Detached Accessory Dwelling Units)
Investors/Builder/Us are now designing 3-bedroom, 2-bath DADUs, which is a huge shift for homeowners in Washington State and opens up incredible opportunities for rental income, multigenerational living, or future flexibility of selling and buying.
š” Whatās new as of July 2025:
Every city in WA now allows 2 DADUs per lot, with a maximum of 1,000 sq ft per DADU (city rules vary on garage inclusion):
Bellevue & Mercer Island: 1,000 sq ft excluding garage
Seattle: Up to 1,200 sq ft excluding garage
Renton & Kent: 1,000 sq ft including garage
