— The Build

How this one came together.

The owners targeted Kirkland's corporate-rental demand directly. Google and Tableau employees on 6–12 month relocations pay $3,400+/mo for a furnished 2-bed within 2 miles of campus.

Kirkland permits took 8 weeks. We delivered with high-end finishes (quartz counters, LVP plank, walk-in tile shower) to support the premium furnished rent.

Currently leased to a Google PM family on a 9-month furnished contract at $3,400/mo.

— Questions

About this build.

Can ADUs be rented furnished short-term?+

Yes — in most Eastside cities, furnished mid-term rentals (30+ days) are allowed without short-term rental permits. Kirkland, Bellevue, and Redmond all permit this.
