Hey TCAR Members!

I’m Bryan, your new Member Services Liaison. I like to think of myself as a fun-loving guy, but I’m serious about my mission here at the Tri-City Association of Realtors. I understand how hard it is at times to be a realtor, so let me be the guy who makes your life better and your job easier.

Let’s have a quick chat about your go-to spot for everything you need; your Portal!  For Members of the Association with access to the PACMLS, there are two Portals. One is your MLS Portal, where you’ll pay your quarterly MLS dues, and the other is your Membership Portal, where you’ll pay your yearly Membership Dues, as well as register for classes and events.

Paying your dues? Head to the portal. Need to change brokerages? Head to the portal. Want to register for a class? Head to the portal! Everything is at your fingertips. While we love sending out communications about classes and events, you can always check your calendar in the portal to stay up-to-date on all the exciting things coming your way.

Now, I want to shed light on the Committees icon that you’ll see at the top of your portal page. Did you know you can use your portal to submit applications to join the committee of your choosing? It's true, and there are so many awesome committees in our Association, there’s bound to be at least one that will spark your interest: Professional Development, Community Outreach, Budget and Finance, Government Affairs, just to name a few. Joining a committee comes with a ton of benefits: building your network, gaining industry knowledge, increasing business opportunities, and having a voice in your local real estate climate. It's a win-win!

I'm looking forward to working with all of you and making your TCAR experience the best it can be. If you have any questions or need assistance, don't hesitate to reach out.

Until next time, happy selling!
