REALTOR® Secondary Membership

What is it? A secondary membership means that you already belong to another association.

What are the benefits of being a Secondary Member? You will have the same access as our Primary Members; access to our Marketing Meetings, Professional Development Courses we host, & access to disclosures that we currently own. (This will not affect your MLS access in any way, since our MLS is separate from our association, please contact BAREIS MLS 707-575-8000 for any MLS related questions)

How much is it? Since you have already paid your Primary Associations' Local, State & National dues, you will only have to pay for the North Bay Local Dues.  2021 Local dues for Secondary Memberships are $100 for the year at a prorated amount. 

How do I become a Secondary Member? All you have to do is fill out and email a completed Application for membership & retain a Letter of Good standing from your current association (this will allow us to adjust your dues). Your Broker must also be a member of the North Bay Association as well.
