Seattle Home Fair
Home Fairs
Each year, SDCI hosts the Seattle Home Fairs, free events designed to help community members better understand City services, permitting processes, and rules that affect their homes and projects. Whether you’re a homeowner, renter, landlord, or planning your first project, our Homefairs have something for you.
Home Fairs include expert guidance on landslide preparation, earthquake retrofits, tree regulations, rental housing standards, and more. They’re your opportunity to get answers directly from City specialists.
