GCAAR invests in Transactions (zipForm® edition) as a member benefit

As you may be aware, NAR no longer provides access to Transactions (you probably know it as zipForm®). But not to worry – GCAAR has you covered! Under an agreement between GCAAR and LoneWolf Technologies, GCAAR purchased this service to make sure you continue to have access to this important tool as a member benefit. This benefit is subsidized by Maryland REALTORS® for our Montgomery County members – and GCAAR subsidizes 100% of the cost for our D.C. members.

GCAAR members will continue to have access to the same benefits they’ve come to enjoy from Transactions (zipForm® Edition) – as part of their GCAAR membership. 

GCAAR is always looking for ways to make your membership more valuable. We know Transactions (zipForm® Edition) is an important business tool for many GCAAR members. This is one more reason why it pays to be a GCAAR member!

You can reach them at 586-840-0140. They are conveniently available 24 hours per day, Monday through Friday, and from 8 a.m.–10 p.m. on weekends and holidays.
