Primary Membership

Choose Primary Membership if the Durango Area Association of REALTORS® is the first or only Board of REALTORS® you are joining. This does not stop you from joining other area Boards, but it means you would join them as a Secondary member, and you would pay your National dues to DAAR.

Requirements for Primary Membership are:

  • Your Broker of Record must belong to the Board you select as your Primary Board (unless you are the broker). If they hold a primary membership elsewhere outside of Colorado, then they must join as a secondary member.
  • You must hold an active Colorado Real Estate License and be in good standing if you are transferring from another board office.
  • Complete no less than 2.5 hours of ethics training and DAAR’s New Member Orientation training within 6 months of joining the association. If you are an existing member transferring from another board within the state, you may provide proof that you have already completed this training. If you are an existing member transferring from a board out of state, you may provide proof that you have taken the ethics course but are still subject to the new member orientation.
