Membership and Its Benefits
As a member of Texas Mortgage Bankers Association, you will enjoy a number of benefits including governmental and legislative advocacy, educational workshops, peer interaction and networking opportunities.
Another member benefit is service on a TMBA Committee. Volunteering on a committee is a way a mortgage professional can participate in a leadership role in the real estate finance industry as a whole. Such leadership provides an opportunity to target trends and issues relevant to the mortgage industry with other committee members who are peer-competitors. It also provides an opportunity for creative problem solving, as well as professional enrichment.
The application process is a simple one. We ask that you complete a TMBA application and submit it with a $200 non-refundable application fee. In addition, a sponsor letter is required from a TMBA member in good standing. A sponsor letter is basically a letter of recommendation from a current designated representative in good standing. Once your application has been approved by a majority of the Board of Directors, you will be notified.
In addition to the above-mentioned benefits, you will receive a bimonthly newsletter, weekly legislative reports (during the legislative session) and a membership directory. TMBA also provides "value-added" benefits to its members - we enjoy an affiliation with and offer discounts on Broadcast Marketing Entertainment; DHL; Alamo Rent-A-Car; National Car Rental and for Southwest Airlines travel to and from official TMBA meetings.
The Texas Mortgage Bankers Association strives to develop benefits, services and opportunities that are worthwhile to its membership. |
