Government Affairs

The Government Affairs Council is a collective of Realogics Sotheby’s International Realty brokers who are actively engaged in policy making and civil service on both state and federal issues. As industry leaders, they are a go-to source for insights, actions and opinions in real estate and its most pertinent affairs. These brokers are members of organizations such as the National Association of REALTORS® (NAR), Washington REALTORS®, Seattle King County REALTORS® (SKAR) and beyond.

Serving as change-makers and advisors, the Government Affairs Council is an integral resource to all RSIR brokers, in addition to lending insight in speaking engagements and op-ed pieces. Some of the many issues they cover include zoning regulations, rent control, the Washington State Condominium Act, taxing commissions, population and brokerage trends, and more.
