Honesty. Integrity. Commitment.

As a homebuyer or seller, that is what the
REALTOR® Code of Ethics means to you.

 Buying or selling a home is an exciting experience, but it can also be a very stressful one—all the different and confusing terms, the huge stacks of paperwork, all the forms that need to be filled out.

 You need someone you can trust, someone who can put your mind at ease because you know they are going to do the right thing and act in your best interest, someone who will protect your rights.

 When you enlist the services of a REALTOR®, you can be confident that you are being dealt with honestly. Every member of the National Association of REALTORS® makes a commitment to adhere to a strict Code of Ethics, which is based on professionalism and protection of the public.

 The Code of Ethics is a promise—as a customer of a REALTOR®, you can expect honest and ethical treatment in all transaction-related matters. It is mandatory for REALTORS® to take the Code of Ethics orientation and they are also required to complete a refresher course every four years.

 The actual Code itself contains 17 Articles and is quite comprehensive. To help you better understand exactly what the Code of Ethics is and how it benefits you as a customer; here is a summary of the key principles, which is referred to as the
REALTORS®' Pledge of Performance and Service.
