Frequently Asked Questions
Why should I join Mainstreet REALTORS®?
All real estate associations are not the same, and we think Mainstreet REALTORS® offers critical benefits because we focus on member value and empowerment. We know our members need the tools, skills and resources to help them succeed in the real estate business today.
This isn't a nice-to-have idea. We think you should get value from your real estate association membership. That's our reality, and we think it should be yours too.
Everyone knows real estate is in a challenging and fast-moving climate, and practice changes and the legal environment mean that it's more important than ever to have an association that has your back. As a result, we focus on the realities of your business, instead of things that don't matter day to day. We are here as your business partner and your advocate.
Our mission is to help you achieve your goals, however you define them.
Our member services team is ready to help, always.
With Mainstreet, you can expect us to Empower YOU.
Is Mainstreet REALTORS® more expensive?
No. You'll find that Mainstreet's REALTOR® membership fee is actually less expensive per month than many other real estate associations around us. It pays to compare.
Can I get Mainstreet's forms for free from my association?
No. Mainstreet's forms are only available to Mainstreet Members.
What else does Mainstreet do for its members?
It almost goes without saying (but we're saying it anyway for the record) that we also fight like crazy to preserve your right to buy, sell and rent real estate, and your clients' right to own it without being burdened by crazy taxes and silly regulations. Other associations call this advocacy. We call it common sense.
