Ryan - the way a broker explained it to me is that by joining NAR you automatically get reciprocal membership in CAR. 

I have needed a 2nd MLS just to get info on properties 45 min away from my office.Once you have a license for 1 state is a bit easier to get licensed in other states since some have reciprocal agreements.      

I've been a member of BNI for 13 years so I understand the value of reciprocity, so if I can help please let me know. 

MA has the strictest lead laws in the country and every state reciprocates with MA because of that, which is why I got my MA license. 

You need to get a reciprocal access agreement with the neighboring property, and a site plan modification or revision.

If anyone out there is familiar with our area, I'd love to chat and learn from your experiences and reciprocate where I can. 

Closing deals on time and with certainty is how I "bribe" my realtor partners - most people do not find their lender first (which boggles my mind, but I'm biased), so it's rare that I can reciprocate and send business back the other way.

If not, make friends with an agent who will reciprocate for those sellers who may want to sell that way.  

What Chris Soignier is describing is called reciprocal lending and is generally considered a linked transaction to a prohibited transaction by the IRS.

If not, you can still attend in Dayton as a reciprocal member from Cincinnati.
