April 2014

Dear COROA Members, DO NOT miss Dr. Knute Beuhler as our keynote speaker for the COROA Annual Dinner on Friday April 18th from 5:30-8:00 PM. There will be great food, along with fantastic networking and fun! The Rental Survey will be revealed during the evening as well. It is not too late to be a Sponsor! Contact us today for details: www.coroa@541media.com The required Law and Rule class for all licensees (LAARC) is being offered on April 17th at the Riverhouse. COROA and Multifamily NW are proudly partnering for this event. Get registered now! Thanks again to Terry Flora-Turner for an exciting Landlord 101 March class, and to her continuing dedication and commitment to helping landlords throughout the State to remain informed. The two of us attended the ORHA Board Meeting in Eugene on March 15th. At this meeting (all day!) much was discussed. The website www.oregonrentalhousing.com continues to be improved upon for ease of use and to be more interactive. Online form sales have almost doubled since this time last year. ORHA's Legislative Director Jim Straub is already working on the wants and needs of Landlords across the State for the upcoming Legislative Session at the Capitol this fall. He is asking us to get him the feedback from our members at the next Board Meeting in May. So PLEASE take the time to voice your opinion with the worksheet included. Mostly I would like to send much appreciation and gratitude to our over-worked and over-extended President Kevin Restine. I personally would like to help him get back to his, "Be Well, Best Regards and Best Wishes" and a bit away from the "Sincerely not well at all" place we all find ourselves at sometimes. Of course he is hilariously funny when he says it, and he makes all of us COROA friends and family laugh! We get it and give him our complete support!
