Kailua FAQ

Can I hold a Kailua yard sale every month?

Monthly sales risk being treated as a home occupation. Consider DPP home-occupation licensing to avoid zoning enforcement action under LUO 21-5.350.

Does a multi-family block sale count as one or many?

A coordinated block sale is still an occasional event for each participating household and remains lawful provided it is a true one-off community activity.

Kapolei FAQ

How often can Kapolei families run a yard sale?

Occasional only under LUO. Most HOAs allow one or two per year per household; community-wide weekends may allow an extra.

When does a sale become a business?

When it becomes regular, advertised, or resells newly acquired stock. That triggers home occupation or retail permit requirements.
