Key Housing, a corporate housing provider known for sourcing hard-to-find accommodations in California, has announced its expansion into Washington State with 'Lightbox' as its Featured Listing for the Seattle market in March 2026. The company is applying its proprietary identification process to cities like Seattle, where housing can be just as scarce as in California.
'Finding short-term housing almost requires insider information,' said Bob Lee, President of Key Housing. 'Our team works like detectives. They identify properties that are hidden gems. We have expanded to Seattle. Lightbox was chosen because it offers the right balance of location, comfort, and amenities.'
Located at 4545 8th Avenue NE, Lightbox is near the University of Washington and offers easy access to I-5 and SR 520, making travel across the greater Seattle area convenient. The property provides furnished one- and two-bedroom apartments for short-term and corporate stays, featuring quartz countertops, stainless steel appliances, in-home washer and dryer units, and smart home technology. Community amenities include a rooftop lounge with an outdoor kitchen, a 24-hour fitness center, controlled access, and electric vehicle charging stations.
Seattle attracts business travelers from industries such as technology, healthcare, aerospace, higher education, and global trade, with major employers including Amazon, Microsoft, Boeing, and the University of Washington. However, Washington's strong business climate contrasts with the difficulty of finding temporary housing. Key Housing aims to bridge this gap by leveraging its expertise in identifying hidden gems.

Based in Folsom, California, Key Housing Connections Inc. specializes in corporate housing and serviced apartments in cities like San Francisco, Los Angeles, San Diego, and now Seattle. The company's expansion into Washington State marks a significant step in addressing the growing demand for flexible, short-term accommodations in major business hubs.
