FILE A COMPLAINT

As a chartered member of the National Association of REALTORS®, we are responsible for enforcing the REALTOR® Code of Ethics within our membership. Our REALTOR® members agree to subscribe to the Code in their daily business practices. Click Here to see a copy of the Code of Ethics.

From time to time, disputes may arise in real estate transactions amongst REALTORS® or between a member of the public and a REALTOR®. Many common disputes arise out of lack of communication. Be sure to read this article.

Should you wish to file a complaint against a REALTOR® member, please be sure to check our directory to verify that the individual is a member here.
