All your burning ‘Dream Home Do Over‘ questions answered!

I got a call saying I qualified for a key! What time do I have to be there?

All pre-qualified players (people who already won keys) MUST check in between 5:30-6:45pm. DO NOT BE LATE! Any pre-qualifiers arriving after 6:45pm will be disqualified.

Now that we can party in person again this year, where’s the fun?

The Dream Home Do-Over ‘House Party’ is Wednesday, May 4, 2022 at the Silver Reef Casino Resort. Silver Reef Casino Resort is located at 4876 Haxton Way in Ferndale. Take Exit 260 from I-5, cross over the freeway and continue four minutes west.

I don’t have a key yet, but I’m feeling lucky! What time do I register for the last-minute entries?

We saved four keys specifically for people to enter to win the night of the party.  Want one?  Show up at the Silver Reef Casino Resort between 3-7pm on Wednesday, May 4th to enter to win.

Can I bring a guest?

YES! Please feel free to bring your cheering section!

If people who pre-qualified don’t show up, does that mean those of us with keys have better odds?

No. There will be a total of 104 qualifiers no matter what.  Any pre-qualified spots not claimed by 6:45pm will be added to the ‘last chance entries’ and qualifiers for those extra spots will be drawn at approximately 7:05pm.

Do I have to be a homeowner to win the 12K?

Nope! Nothing in the rules requires you to own your home—renters are encouraged! There are plenty of ways to spend the money at our TEN sponsor locations.

I’m from Canada…can I come to the party?

YES! You are more than welcome to join us for the fun at the DHDO House Party! Unfortunately, you cannot win the $12K grand prize. To be eligible to win you must be a US Citizen, residing in Washington state, age 18 or older, that have not won anything on KAFE in the past 30 days or any prize valued at $600 or more in the past 6 months. Find more on the official rules HERE.
