The Texas REALTORS® Accounting and Membership Department handles the association’s record-keeping so you can receive the services you rely on.

The Accounting team watches the association’s expenditures, from managing payroll and benefits for 70-plus staffers to maintaining accounts payable and receivable. Accounting pays the organization’s bills. These team members help compile the annual budget and monitor it throughout the year. They’re responsible for financial reporting as well.

Much of the department’s work involves interacting with databases and financial software. Accounting Specialist Katie Stefano processes payments to vendors and works on expenses related to the association’s credit cards and travel reimbursements, among other things.

The Membership team handles the paperwork for the more than 150,000-member association. Membership manages your records, bills you for dues, and processes your payments. They are the ones who help you with membership issues.

Membership Supervisor Camryn Ball answers members’ calls when they have trouble with their records or form access. “I have built great relationships with the local REALTOR® associations,” she says. “It’s great to have a friendly conversation with them and the members who call. I get to do a deep dive into new systems and help solve problems.”

“Our team’s daily focus is to serve members of Texas REALTORS® in every possible way that allows them access to their benefits when they need them,” says Susan Chichester, Controller/Membership Director.
