Real Estate Balance is a membership organisation with a difference. We don’t just want people to pay a subscription and sit back and do nothing or just network. Instead we want all our members, but particularly those who are senior enough to change how their organisations behave, to commit to working with us to improve the corporate culture of our industry to encourage better gender diversity.
And that means getting involved in our activities, sharing information on their own diversity initiatives, acting upon the ideas, experiences and learning to bring about change in their own workplaces and measuring and monitoring how their own companies are doing.

- In order for Real Estate Balance to be most effective, we ask that the leadership team identify key people (women & men) who will advocate for gender balance & engage with Real Estate Balance to promote initiatives and drive communication through their business
- Attendance at Real Estate Balance events
- Ability to apply for Committee seat when available
- Access to Good Practice Tool Kit and a network of senior executives and companies to share best practice.
- Members' Programme of events
- Senior cross industry networking opportunities
- Free or subsidized attendance to events/training
- Corporate Logo on the REB website
- Visibility of Corporate logo at some REB events
