The $125 is what OKCMAR collects in dues each year. While OKCMAR bills you for your state and national association dues each December (and you write out the check to OKCMAR) OKCMAR pays the remaining $249 to the state and local association. Only states that have unassigned territories (no local board exists in the natural market area) have members who pay the state directly. These people pay the state their national dues.
The money collected for MLS services is billed and collected by the MLS corporation. One does not have to be a member of OKCMAR to use MLS services but they must be a REALTOR. We have approximately 1200 MLS users that do not belong to OKCMAR but belong to other boards, mostly in Oklahoma but some from surrounding states.
