Fees
The initial cost to join LAAR is prorated based on the month of the join date. After you have established your LAAR membership and paid the initial cost to join, agents will be billed for the reoccurring annual fees and dues. Membership dues are billed each November and due on January 1st of each year. MLS fees are billed quarterly during the first week of the last month of the quarter (Mar, Jun, Sept, Dec) and due on the 1st day of each new quarter (Jan, Apr, July, Oct). You may opt to pay your MLS fees annually. Annual MLS fees are billed in December of each year and due on January 1st of each year. You must inform us if you would like to be billed annually for MLS fees.
Application fees and firm participation fees are not prorated and are one time fees only so long as you stay in good standing with our association.
