Joining a committee has always been a great way to make new contacts, learn about new trends in our profession and have a voice in shaping the Association’s direction. Each year over one hundred REALTORS® and Platinum Affiliates become active participants in Bay East’s committees. Members can apply to serve on one or more committee based on their interests. Some committees have requirements for membership while others have waiting lists.
