Join us for this fast-paced and extremely important class where students will learn about the Wildland Urban Interface (WUI), wildfire home assessment, how to create defensible space around a home, and home hardening. Defensible space and home hardening are two common terms describing measures property owners can take to reduce wildfire risk. Learn what a wildfire home assessment is, why it's important, and how to get one. This, and much more, is valuable information for REALTORS® selling property in our mountain communities - knowing how to explain mitigation with prospective buyers, as well as sellers. Also discussed will be the Rotary Wildfire Ready program.
