NABOR 2010 MEMBERSHIP ………..NO NABOR DUES INCREASE!
All managing brokers have received dues invoice statements for their agents. We are happy to announce there is no increase in annual local dues again this year! We are still only $99.50. Avoid late fees……get your dues in within the next 27 days. Agents should return their invoice and payment directly to the broker, who will then forward everything on all agents to the NABOR Office. Dues must be in by November 15. Many thanks to all who support the northshore professional association, where they also live, enjoy their families, participate in the community, work, list and sell real estate. NABOR continues to grow stronger every year because of you. Thank you!
