Membership - Join GAMP!

The Georgia Association of Mortgage Professionals (GAMP) was incorporated in 1985 as a 501(c)(6) nonprofit state trade organization with the following purposes: "to promote the business of mortgage brokerage, to educate members of the mortgage brokerage community, to promote high standards of integrity and responsibility in the mortgage brokerage community, to educate the public as to the desirability of mortgage brokerage, and to do all other things necessary for the advancement of mortgage brokerage business." GAMP Members still uphold these purposes as they were originally written in the organization's Articles of Incorporation, proudly supporting the mortgage brokerage industry on both state and national levels.

Whether your interest lies in fraternizing with others who share your profession, having greater access to industry information, building your business network, being recognized for your achievements, or fighting for a cause to further the interests of your industry and strengthening the voice of the mortgage professional, you will be a welcome member of the Georgia Association of Mortgage Professionals.

Additional Notes on Applying for Membership

Membership is for Individuals (Not Companies)

Please note that all memberships in GAMP at this time are for individuals as opposed to corporate or company memberships.

Membership Dues Tax Deductibility

Federal laws prohibit deducting any part of membership Dues used in federal lobbying activities from your taxes. An estimated 60% of GAMP dues and 100% of GMBPAC dues are not tax deductible.

Anniversary Dues Billing: Membership is Good for 1 Full Year

GAMP bills for dues on anniversary dates. This means that when you pay your GAMP dues, your membership will be good for 1 full year from the date of your membership approval. Because we bill by anniversary date and a member always gets a full year of membership, dues are never prorated.

When you apply for GAMP membership, you agree to abide by the requirements of the GAMP Code of Ethics and Professional Standards & Best Lending Practices, as well as to support GAMP's Bylaws and board policies, as they are now and as they may be amended.
