Associate membership is for those companies engaged in a profession or business associated with the property industry, such as planners and lawyers.

The Property Council of Australia membership subscription runs in line with the financial year (1 July to June 30).

Membership benefits are available once your invoice has been paid.

As our membership is state-based, you can only receive member benefits in the state that you hold membership. Your state-based membership includes discounted rates for our Academy courses, research products as well as our national events such as Property Congress and the Retirement Living Summit.

If you have a national presence as an associate member, we recommend you take out membership in the states where you have a prescence. Speak to our team about tailoring a package for your organisation.
