Upon approval, the new member is invoiced for annual dues. This excludes brokers, property management companies, service providers, vendors, accountants and law firms. Typically, this would mean starting at the Vice President or Director level. The individual must have a solid reputation in the industry for dealing in good faith and maintaining the highest standards of conduct. Each prospective member is admitted solely on his or her own merits.
Memberships are non-transferrable.
Members may not send alternates to functions. All members are expected to pay their annual dues in a timely manner, upon receiving invoices. Memberships are terminated when members fail to pay their annual dues. Membership will be terminated if a member changes position from that of principal to service provider, vendor, or agent. Once membership has been terminated pursuant to any of the reasons outlined herein, the individual must reapply for membership.
