SkySlope
How do members log into SkySlope and access NMAR forms?
Members will go to SkySlope and create an account with a username and password. Once the account is created, members will need to input their NRDS# for NMAR member verification. If you don’t know your NRDS#, you will be able to search for it on SkySlope. Once membership has been verified, click on “Profile” in the upper right corner. Select the dropdown option of “Associations,” click on “New Mexico,” and add the library to your profile. Once the NMAR forms library has been added to your profile, you will be able to start creating transactions.
Will SkySlope provide training sessions (July 2023)?
Yes! SkySlope will launch on Monday, July 10th, and trainings created especially for NMAR members start Tuesday, July 11th. We will continue to offer live trainings (virtually) to NMAR members for four consecutive weeks and beyond if necessary.

What services will SkySlope provide to NMAR members?
SkySlope will continue to provide the same services NMAR members currently receive and more! Members will receive the most updated NMAR forms, DigiSign (electronic signature), and Broker tools for Qualifying Brokers, including “Super User” status for support staff. SkySlope also offers mobile capabilities, 24/7 customer service, and the option to upgrade to Transaction Management, at a discounted rate, to assist Brokerage firms with compliance management.
Will SkySlope populate information from the MLS?
Yes, members can connect to SkySlope through their local MLS and populate the Listing Brokers’ name, brokerage firm, phone number, email address, license number, MLS # property address, and list price. SWMLS has an additional integration with FlexMLS to import data from the MLS as well.
Can Brokerage firms retain access to files after an associate broker changes brokerage firms?
Brokerages maintain access to listing/transaction files within their transaction management solution since an agent always submits things to them there (i.e. SkySlope, Dotloop, Transaction Desk, paper, etc). Currently within SkySlope Forms, associate brokers will maintain access to their files for personal record keeping, even if they change brokerages.
Will members have the same tools as provided by Transaction Desk?
Yes, the member benefit will include access to NMAR forms, DigiSign (electronic signature), and Broker Edition. The Broker Edition will allow the Qualifying Broker to view Associate Brokers transactions, assign ‘Super User’ status to support staff, create templates for the brokerage firm, and more. Please remember that SkySlope is a different platform with a slightly different interface than Transaction Desk. Please prepare for a slight learning curve as expected when learning how the new platform operates.
Will NMAR members lose access to Transaction Desk?
Members will continue to have access to Transaction Desk until August 27th. After August 27th, members will have the option to continue to use Transaction Desk for data storage/access their files for a fee, or members may choose to purchase the full suite of services for uninterrupted use of all functionality. However, if members decide to continue to use Transaction Desk for NMAR forms and Authentisign, the Qualifying Broker must purchase Transaction Desk. Also note, that after August 27th, NMAR will no longer provide customer support for Transaction Desk; members will need to contact Transaction Desk directly.
How much will it cost for me to continue with Transaction Desk?
If members decide to continue with Transaction Desk, they will have two options available. The member can continue to have access to historical transactions stored on Transaction Desk and access the NMAR forms for $89.00 per year/per broker. If members want to continue to use Transaction Desk for data storage, NMAR forms, and AuthentiSign, it will cost $159.00 per year/per broker. NMAR will continue to forward new/revised forms to Transaction Desk. NMAR recommends that members who wish to continue with Transaction Desk wait until the pop-ups appear to gain the special pricing negotiated by NMAR which should start July 31st. Members that continue with Transaction Desk will no longer have access for Qualifying Brokers to review/monitor their transactions unless the office purchases the Broker Edition. Keep in mind that Transaction Desk is historically slow in updating the NMAR forms for the membership.
