Owner Information
Northwest Swim Club is a private, nonprofit swim club owned by 900 equal-stake Owner Certificate holders which entitles owners to an annual membership when dues are paid by May 1st. Owners have exclusive voting rights in the operation of the club which is overseen by a Board of Trustees comprised of certificate holding members. 
If you are interested in purchasing an Owner’s Certificate, you can join the waitlist to purchase a certificate directly from NWSC when one becomes available. Alternately, owners will occasionally sell their certificates privately to interested members at market rate, often on social media.
When available for purchase directly from the club, Owner’s Certificates are $250.
The waitlist also allows you to be notified of any Provisional Memberships offered by the club. These are temporary one year non-owner memberships that do not come with voting and other rights, but allow you access to the club for one season. You do not have to purchase a Provisional Membership to stay on the waitlist.  If offered a Provisional Membership, you will be sent information via email on how to complete your purchase.

Owner’s Certificate Transfers
Donating your certificate back to the club? Just email Leigh@nwswimclub.org, no fees necessary!

Current Certificate Owners 

Current Certificate Owners have two options for transferring their Owner’s Certificate: Selling their certificate privately OR Donating their certificate back to the pool.

Selling: Once this Certificate Transfer Fee is paid and a buyer has been found, the certificate can be sold at any mutually agreed upon price. We can provide contact information for persons who have purchased a spot on our waitlist for a certificate, upon request. Currently there are nearly 200 persons on the waitlist with an estimated two year wait to purchase an Owner’s Certificate. 

Donation: With this option, no transfer fee is charged, and the certificate will be sold to a member of the waiting list at the current club price of $250.  Just select “donate” on the Owner’s Certificate Transfer Application and you are done!


Certificate Transfer Fee

Please remember to answer all questions asked during checkout and look for a follow-up email. You and your buyer will handle the exchange of money for the Certificate of Ownership. Once complete, fill out the Certificate Transfer Information form from the follow-up email. NWSC will invoice your buyer for the upcoming year’s dues to be paid directly to the club.


I need access to the waitlist - $50.00
I have a buyer lined up - $25.00
I am donating my bond to NWSC - $0.00
Sign in to purchase

You or your buyer must ensure dues are paid by any deadline which falls during your transaction. Failure to pay dues associated with any Owner Certificate, regardless of stage in sale transaction, may result in revocation of the Certificate rendering it unsalable.
Buyers

The quickest way to purchase a Certificate of Ownership is to purchase a certificate from a current Owning member. Being part of our waitlist will allow selling members to contact you and offer a sale or you may go through other personal channels. When you have found a seller, feel free to reach out to office@nwswimclub.org to verify their account’s good standing as the exchange of your agreed up on price will be handled privately. Once this is complete, your seller will contact NWSC and we will invoice you for your annual dues (to be prorated if sale is made mid-season). 

The other avenue to ownership is to join our waitlist and be eligible to purchase a Certificate of Ownership directly from NWSC! When you purchase directly from the club, the cost is $250. Our waitlist is currently over 200 long so this route can take a couple seasons to get an opportunity but we promise it will be worth the wait!

Northwest Swim Club cannot take responsibility for the exchange of money between buyers and sellers. We suggest using a secure backed method such as PayPal or transferring funds in person (at the pool when in season) once verifying a legitimate seller. 


Waitlist Fee

Get in line! This is the easiest path to ownership and the only path to a Provisional Membership at NWSC. Due to the typical length of time spent on our waitlist, this $35 fee will be charged annually to ensure everyone is still interested in waiting another year. It will be your responsibility to keep your email address up to date in our records as all communication about potential Ownership will be conveyed this way.

Price: $35.00

Provisional Memberships

Provisional memberships may be offered by the club as authorized by the Board of Trustees. These are temporary, one season non-ownership memberships that do not come with voting and other rights, but allow you access to the club for one season.

If you are interested in purchasing a provisional membership, join our waitlist and select yes to the question “are you interested in purchasing a provisional membership?” If offered a provisional membership, you will be sent information via email on how to complete your purchase. We will be offering these memberships again in 2024 as allowed by the Board of Trustees.
