MEMBERSHIP AGREEMENT
REALTOR® Membership Agreement: I hereby apply for REALTOR® membership in the
Greater Tampa REALTORS®. My dues and application fee will be returned to me in the
event of non-election. In the event of my election, I agree to abide by the Code of Ethics
of the National Association of REALTORS® (NAR), which includes the duty to arbitrate,
and the Constitution, Bylaws and Rules and Regulations of the above named Greater
Tampa REALTORS® (GTR), the State Association (Florida REALTORS®), and National
Association, and if required, I further agree to satisfactorily complete a reasonable and
non-discriminatory written examination on such Code, Constitutions, Bylaws and Rules
and Regulations. I understand membership brings certain privileges and obligations that
require compliance. Membership is final only upon approval by the Board of Directors and
may be revoked should completion of requirements, such as orientation, not be completed
within the time-frame established in the Association’s Bylaws. I understand that I will
be granted provisional membership upon submission and processing of a completed
application form and remittance of applicable dues and application fee, and that my
application is subject to review by the Board of Directors. I further understand that if
I fail to attend the mandatory orientation within sixty (60) days, my membership will
be terminated, at which time I will be given notice of the termination of my provisional
membership. The application fee is non-refundable. I understand that I will be required
to complete periodic Code of Ethics training as specified in the Association’s Bylaws as a
condition of membership.
I understand that by providing my email address(es), telephone number(s), and
fax number(s), I consent to receive communications sent from the Greater Tampa
REALTORS®, Florida REALTORS®, and/or the National Association of REALTORS® via email,
telephone, messaging, or facsimile at those numbers/locations
NOTE: Applicant acknowledges that if accepted as a member and he/she subsequently
resigns from the Association or otherwise causes membership to terminate with an ethics
complaint pending, the Board of Directors may condition renewal of membership upon
applicant’s certification that he/she will submit to the pending ethics proceeding and
will abide by the decision of the hearing panel. If applicant resigns or otherwise causes
membership to terminate, the duty to submit arbitration continues in eect even after
membership lapses or is terminated, provided the dispute arose while applicant was
a REALTOR®. Membership dues are prorated and will vary based on the DBPR license
aliation date with broker.
Please sign to acknowledge your agreement:

available. This consent applies to changes in contact information that may be provided by me to the Association(s) in the future.
