FAQs

What are the different payment options?

There are two payment options:

    • Full payment may be paid by e-Transfer or credit card.
    • Quarterly installments may only be paid by credit card.

If I pay quarterly, when are the subsequent installments to be charged?

These will automatically be charged to your credit card on the first day of each calendar quarter – April 1, July 1 and Oct 1.

I already gave you my credit card. Will my account auto-renew?

Unfortunately we cannot. Our system does not carry over credit card information from the previous year. Members will have to re-enter their credit card information to pay their dues.

What does the suspension/deactivation process look like?

Failure to pay membership dues in full or to have signed up for quarterly installments by February 28 will result in the suspension of member privileges effective the first Monday in March. Consequences for not paying may vary by board, but can include revocation of access to MLS®, Data Co-op, and AREA Forms.

Privileges will be re-activated upon payment of dues.
