Who This is For?

For REALTORS® who already have a home — and want a second one that works harder.

You already hold REALTOR® membership through another local association. Your Illinois REALTORS® and NAR dues are paid. What you don’t have is Mainstreet — our forms, our benefits, our market intelligence and access to the largest professional real estate community in Chicagoland. Enhanced REALTOR® Secondary Membership gives you all of it, locally, without duplicating the dues you already pay.

Whether you’re an out-of-state broker who needs our forms and MLS access, or a Chicagoland agent whose primary membership sits at another board, this is full Mainstreet membership at a secondary rate.

Full member. Full service. Secondary rate.

Connect+ Secondary Subscription comes with the Connect+ business platform — full Mainstreet forms-library access, education, member services, networking and professional standards through the Mainstreet Code of Conduct. It does not include Forewarn®, the personal-safety and identity-verification tool that is included with the full Connect+ Subscription. That’s the one real difference, and we’d rather say it here than let you find out later. If safety verification matters to how you show property, the full Connect+ Subscription is the better fit.

Enhanced REALTOR® membership with Mainstreet REALTORS® remains the gold standard and Connect+ Secondary Subscription doesn’t change that. It exists so your office’s structure never costs you the professional foundation you need locally.

What You Get

Full member. Full service. Secondary rate.

Secondary doesn’t mean second-class. You’re a full Mainstreet member with the same forms, the same benefits and the same responsive support as every primary member. The only thing you skip is paying for REALTOR® status a second time — because you already cover it through your primary association.

What's already covered (so you don't pay twice).

Your REALTOR® designation, NAR membership and Illinois REALTORS® membership stay with your primary association. Enhanced REALTOR® Secondary layers Mainstreet’s local platform on top — no duplicate state or national dues.

MLS access gets you in. The network helps you win.

Tools come and go. What makes a Mainstreet membership different is the data, intelligence and network effects you can’t get anywhere else — and as a secondary member you get all of it. The same buyer-discovery tools and the same market intelligence (coming soon)! Full membership means the full platform.
