100 RedFlags NAR Code of Ethics

PROFESSIONAL STANDARDS · ETHICS, FAIR HOUSING & CSR

The NAR Code of Ethics isn't just a professional courtesy — violations can trigger licensing complaints, association discipline, and evidence used against you in a Fair Housing claim.

What's inside:

• Full walkthrough of the NAR Code of Ethics and Professional Standards as they intersect with Fair Housing and CSR obligations

• Explains how ethics complaints and Fair Housing complaints can arise from the same underlying conduct

• Practical guidance for aligning day-to-day practice with both association standards and federal law

• Designed for agents, brokers, and office managers who want one consistent standard across ethics and compliance

Why the cost makes sense: NAR ethics violations can result in association discipline up to expulsion, while the same conduct can separately expose a professional to Fair Housing liability, including federal civil penalties that have reached over $100,000 per violation in enforcement actions. This guide cannot guarantee you'll never face a complaint, but for $49 it shows you where ethics and federal compliance obligations overlap.

This guide is educational and risk-awareness material only. It does not guarantee that following it will prevent a fine, investigation, or conviction, and it is not legal advice or a substitute for consulting a licensed attorney about your specific situation.
