Who is a REALTOR®
Not everyone who sells real estate is a REALTOR®. Possessing a real estate license does not
afford instant REALTOR® status. A REALTOR® is a member of local, state and national professional trade associations.
About the REALTOR® Code of Ethics
2007 Code of Ethics
Only members of the National Association of REALTORS® subscribe to and are bound by NAR’s strict code of ethics in their dealing with clients and customers, the public and with each other.
REALTORS® are subject to disciplinary action should a local association of REALTORS® find them in violation of the code of ethics.
REALTORS® must take an ethics training course at least once every four years to retain membership in the National Association of REALTORS®. The training includes two and a half hours of instruction.
NAR adopted its code of ethics in 1913, and was only the second trade or business group in the United States to adopt mandatory ethics standards.
