How this fits RaiderX sponsorship

RaiderX-sponsored agents join one of RaiderX's seven member boards — SABOR, HAR, MetroTex, ABoR, Greater McAllen, Lubbock and Permian Basin. CCAR is not one of them: RaiderX joins another association only when the agent agrees to bear that membership expense. Ask on the intro call if CCAR's MLS is essential to your market.

CCAR membership FAQ

Coastal Bend Association of REALTORS® publishes: $200 per year in local dues plus $358 for Texas REALTORS® and NAR; about $580 per year for MLS access.

Verified September 18, 2026.

What does a broker or LLC pay to open an office with CCAR?

CCAR does not publish its Designated REALTOR® or office fees online; contact the board for the broker application. A broker who is a REALTOR® is also responsible for board membership (or a non-member assessment) for every licensee the office sponsors.

Which Texas counties does CCAR cover?

Texas REALTORS® lists Coastal Bend Association of REALTORS® as the local association for Brooks, Jim Wells, Kenedy, Kleberg, Live Oak, Nueces and San Patricio counties.

Is CCAR one of RaiderX's member boards?

No. RaiderX holds broker membership at seven Texas boards — SABOR, HAR, MetroTex, ABoR, Greater McAllen, Lubbock and Permian Basin — and sponsored agents join one or more of those. RaiderX does not join another association such as CCAR unless the agent agrees to bear that membership expense.
