Is membership individual or company based?
Membership is individually based and membership benefits are assigned to the individual. However, many of our members' companies pay dues for their employees to support their involvement. When a company pays for a membership, that company shall be allowed to choose another staff member to replace the original member that has left or has been reassigned to a different position within the company. The new member shall then receive full access to NAIOP benefits through the original member's expiration date. At the same time, the original member is eligible to receive full access to NAIOP benefits through a "courtesy membership" extension through the end of the calendar year, provided that the member departed his/her original company on or after April 1st (90 days) of the current year. A courtesy extension will not be offered to members who remain with their original company and have been replaced by that company.
How often do I need to pay dues?
NAIOP membership is based on the calendar year. However, you may join NAIOP at any time throughout the year and enjoy one year of membership. You'll pay a complete year's dues when you join, and will be invoiced during the renewal cycle for a pro-rated charge for your second year of membership. Memberships expire on December 31.
How much are my dues?
Dues are set by each chapter and based on the number of individuals from your company as well as who is joining or has joined this chapter. To calculate your exact dues, please go to our
Dues Estimator. If you have any further questions, you can contact your local Chapter Administrator or Membership Committee Chair (contact above) or the Corporate Membership Services at:
e-mail: Membership@naiop.org or call: 800.456.4144.
What are Principal members and Associate members?
Principal members are individuals whose company has an ownership interest in industrial, office or related commercial real estate industry. This includes developers, investors, owners and corporate executives/asset managers. Associate members are individuals whose company provides services or products to the industrial, office, or related commercial real estate industry. This includes accountants, brokers, engineers, land planners, title companies, architects, property managers, environmental, product providers, utilities, attorneys, contractors, financiers and consultants.
What is an Affiliate member?
Affiliate membership is open to individuals whose employer also has at least one additional NAIOP member in good standing and within the same chapter. To show our appreciation for your company's continued partnership, affiliate members receive a discounted rate on their dues.
What is a Corporate Membership?
If your company has four or more employees who want to belong to NAIOP and participate in the same local chapter, we'll provide a significant discount to your membership. Complete information is available on the
Corporate Membership Web page.
Can I just join my local chapter?
NAIOP membership is an all-inclusive package of membership in both National and your local chapter. Membership at both levels gives you maximum opportunity to attend educational programs, network with fellow members and participate in government affairs efforts. National membership allows you to network with NAIOP members nationwide, as well as providing you with the news resources you need to stay in-the-know in the commercial real estate industry. Individual chapters have local leadership and committees that organize events and spearhead legislative actions, including state capital visits and community involvement. Other events typically include property tours, education seminars and golf tournaments. In addition, to maintain ties with the National NAIOP leadership, each chapter nominates one representative to serve on the national board of directors.
Can I join more than one chapter?
Yes! NAIOP allows you to join additional chapters by contacting the National office and requesting to be added to another chapter. There are additional chapter dues associated with belonging to more than one chapter.
How do I update my membership information?
The easiest way to update your membership information is to login to Your NAIOP Account online. Click on the menu item that reflects the change you want to make. All changes can be made online except changes to your name, company name and chapter. You can also contact us via e-mail, phone at (703)904-7100 or by fax at (703) 904-7942
