Membership overview

Informational points

• Membership runs on a calendar-year basis, from 1st January to 31st December
• Membership renews automatically unless terminated according to termination rules
• Membership level is primarily determined by company size. Upgrades are allowed at any time to enjoy more benefits.
• Each membership package includes access to networking opportunities, industry insights, events, and community engagement.

New package for small companies (Supporting Membership for ≤5 employees)

Eligibility criteria :

• Luxembourg-based company, not part of an international group
• Not a subsidiary or branch of another company (domestic or foreign)
• Principal place of business and management located in Luxembourg

This Small Package is intended to attract new Supporting Members or convert existing Personal Members. It is not intended to reclassify existing Supporting Members.

Downgrades to this package may be considered on a case-by-case basis.

Eligibility for this package will be confirmed by the Membership Working Group.

Multi-entity membership rules

For other membership categories, situations where multiple entities are grouped under a single membership will be reviewed. Separate memberships will be required where different legal entities belong to different categories or sectors.

Only individuals representing approved member companies, subsidiaries, or legal entities will be eligible to participate in events.

Company size/number of employees

As membership fees and packages depend on company size, the total headcount of the Luxembourg entity, including for example self-employed lawyers, will be used as the reference.

The number of employees should be reviewed prior to invoicing.

If a company grows beyond 5 or 100 employees during the membership year, the membership category may be reassessed at renewal.

Criteria for accepting new members

• Eligibility criteria
• • The candidate must have a professional link with the real estate industry.
  • Applicants not based in Luxembourg may only apply as Supporting Member. The Small Package is not applicable in such cases.

  • Real Estate agents focusing on residential properties, where real estate agent revenue represents more than 50% of total revenue
  • Janitorial service providers (e.g., cleaning and security)
  • Applicants with significant negative media coverage or reputational concerns

​This list may be updated when necessary.

• Specific categories (e.g. Material, Maintenance & Repair, furniture and equipment)

Applications from these actors will be assessed on a case-by-case basis, taking into account their direct link to the real estate sector, their role in driving innovation, sustainability and circularity in building management and asset operations, as well as their contribution to the Association’s community and its members.
