NAR's Strength is Your Advantage

NAR has reached over a million members. There has never been a better time to enjoy all that NAR offers to enhance your success as a REALTOR®. NAR is comprised of REALTORS® from almost 60 countries involved in every aspect of the real estate industry from residential brokers to property managers.

The NATIONAL ASSOCIATION OF REALTORS® receives $80 of your total annual dues, but the benefits you receive by being a member are far in excess of this amount.

For example, your free subscription to REALTOR® Magazine (a $50 value) covers most of your dues received at the National level. And, by taking advantage of just one REALTOR Benefits® Program Partner offering, you can easily offset your total membership dues.
