Thank you to the National Association of REALTORS® for highlighting the importance of fair housing and equal opportunity during Pride Month.

As REALTORS®, we are guided by a commitment to professionalism, respect, and the principles of fair housing that help strengthen our communities and support the dream of homeownership for all.

NAR's Code of Ethics prohibits discrimination based on sexual orientation and gender identity. NAR supports the Fair and Equal Housing Act, which would add these protections to federal law.
