Your Backyard, Reimagined

A New Era of Housing Flexibility

Statewide zoning reform now allows 2-4 homes on
most residential lots. In some cases even 5 or more homes / units.

What Changed?

  • Multiple units allowed (attached or detached)
  • Accessory Dwelling Unit (ADU)
  • Unit Lot Subdivision (ULS): sell each home separately with its own parcel ID
  • Streamlined permitting and fewer parking requirements

KEY STATE LEGISLATION

HB 1110 – Middle Housing Flexibility

  • Allows 2-4 units (or more) per lot
    statewide (attached or detached)
  • Gives cities clear density minimums

HB 1096 – Unit Lot Subdivision (ULS)

  • Enables separate sale of each home
    with its own tax parcel ID
  • Perfect for small developers and
    homeowners alike

Why The Changed?

WA State has a housing shortage and needs 1 million new homes by 2044.
