Bob Rosenberger
|
Candidate for King County Assessor
When I invest in rental real estate I want my taxes based on an
accurate appraisal. While working as a Deputy Assessor for
twenty-four years, I did my best to consider all conditions that impact
market value. As your next Assessor, I will make sure that all
property is handled fairly, that all taxpayers are treated with respect,
and that all information and analysis we use is readily available to
you.

Reagan Dunn
|
Candidate for King County Council District 9
One of the greatest accomplishments of my first term was
collaborating with RHA to crack down on bad tenants operating drug
houses and committing crimes. The 2008 law requires the
Sheriff’s office to notify landlords about serious crimes on their
property and allows the Sheriff to aide in eviction proceedings.
Since 2005, we’ve tackled many tough issues, but there is still
work to be done. I’d greatly appreciate your support for a second
term.
For Reagan please contact Lisa LaBrache lisa.labrache@kingcounty.gov 206-296-1634

Candidate for Seattle Council District 8
Campaign Phone: 206-726-9999
My wife Terry and I bought our first apartment building in
Seattle in 1986. We now own 4 buildings, and still manage them
ourselves. People who own rental property work hard and play by the
rules. Their efforts and contribution to the city are often
underappreciated. If I’m elected, I’ll work just as hard as
you do to represent your interests, values and principles on the Seattle
City Council. Thank you. www.robertrosencrantz.com

As I have campaigned door-to-door, I have handed out thousands

Don’s experience, as Past President of the Bellevue
Chamber of Commerce and past Mayor of Bellevue, makes him an ideal
candidate for re-election to the Bellevue City Council. His sensitivity
to the rights of private landowners and his belief that government over
regulation stifles economic growth has earned him our
endorsement.

Penny Sweet
|
Candidate for Kirkland City Council District 3
Our region has suffered from rapidly escalating housing prices
for years resulting in a housing crisis for average households where
families cannot afford to buy in proximity to where jobs are.
Rental housing allows young families an opportunity to live in
reasonable proximity to where they work.
Municipalities must work hard to assure that we don’t saddle
this resource with onerous taxation and impacts that will put affordable
housing further from the reach of young families.

Rose Ehart
|
Candidate for
University Place District 5
I’m a former property manager who understands the issues
you face and how city council decisions impact you. Excess taxation
burdens property owners forcing rent increase and higher turnover rates.
This is not good for our city’s economy or your ROI. As your
council member I’ll stand behind property owners and work with you
to make our city a place where you will want to continue investing in.
Please vote for me. Thank you. www.RoseEhart.org
