When you join CREW, you are making an important investment in your business, advancing your career, and supporting the success of women in commercial real estate. Everything we do is designed to help our members be successful—this includes facilitating networking and leadership development opportunities, advocating for women in the industry, and connecting you to other members to give and get business.
Members receive a discounted rate on all chapter events, including speaker luncheons, tours, and events co-sponsored with other professional organizations. Our luncheons feature prominent speakers who address diverse and cutting-edge issues that impact the commercial real estate industry both regionally and nationally.
CREW East Bay also offers member-only events, which are typically smaller and more intimate, including educational lunch and learn series, leadership events, networking and cocktail events, tours, Dine-Arounds, and other special programs.
Members can use CREW Network's resources to cultivate relationships, promote mutual business interests, discuss opportunities and challenges they are facing, and identify employment opportunities.
Only members have the opportunity to participate in committees. Committee involvement can lead to increased contact with prominent industry leaders and the creation of new alliances, business and professional opportunities. Active committee members receive visibility and exposures and are encouraged to assume leadership roles.
Members of CREW East Bay are automatically members of CREW Network, which provides access to a global network of more than 14,000 members representing nearly every discipline within the industry, located in 75+ major markets across the globe.
There are no “cold calls” in CREW - members extend a professional courtesy by promptly responding to calls from other members. Only CREW members have access to the member directory and other resources on the CREW Network website.
Members receive reduced rates for the annual CREW Network Convention & Marketplace and other CREW Network events.
CREW East Bay members enjoy reciprocity for event pricing at other Bay Area chapters.
CREW memberships are on calendar year terms; all memberships expire on December 31. Membership dues are non-refundable. CREW memberships are individual, not corporate. Approvals are based on the qualifications of the applicant, therefore memberships are also non-transferable (even within the same company).
