A real estate professional's membership in the Association distinguishes
him or her from non-members, because Member REALTORSŪ voluntarily
accept the obligation to meet the standards of practice and conduct
set forth in the National Association of REALTORSŪ Code of Ethics
and Standards of Practice. This Code of Ethics represents the standard
of business practices and establishes a public and professional consensus
upon which REALTORŪ Members are judged by their peers. Adherence
to this nationally recognized Code of Ethics assures the public that
a REALTORŪ will conduct his or her business in accordance with the
Code of Ethics and will provide services that both meet a higher
standard than those mandated by law and promote the best interests
of the clients and the real estate profession.
Members of the Association are also obligated to conduct themselves
and their businesses in accordance with the Association's rules
and regulations, Constitution and Bylaws, as well as the MLS rules
and the Bylaws and Constitutions of C.A.R. and N.A.R.
The Association has the responsibility to enforce these standards
of professional ethics and conduct. For monetary business disputes,
this is accomplished through arbitration or mediation proceedings.
For violations of the Code of Ethics, this is accomplished through
disciplinary proceedings.
