Dues: Yearly dues comprise of State, Local and National Dues and are due each year no later than 12/31. A late fee goes into effect on January 1st with no exceptions. ALL dues must be paid online. We accept MC/Visa and online e checks. To pay dues click on the pay dues link at the top right of NAR’s home page. You must have your NRDS# to pay dues. Can’t find your NRDS#? Your Realtor Magazine has your NRDS# right on your address label or go to https://www.nar.realtor/ and check via your last name or email address. It’s a good idea to keep your NRDS# in a convenient place, since you will need this to pay dues each year.
Dues for a new member also comprise of State, Local and National Dues, and also include a one time membership fee of $225.00. In order to join SCBR, your designated broker must also be a member of SCBR.

What is the difference between Primary & Secondary Membership? An individual is a primary member of a board if that board remits State and National dues are remitted through another board. Since National dues are only paid once, there is only one primary board.
