The Code’s Foundation: Made of Gold
NAR relies on its Code of Ethics to ensure that REALTORS® conduct business with honesty and the highest integrity, guided by the golden rule (“Do unto others as you would have them do unto you”). This rule outlines the fundamental principles of an honest real estate practice and sets expectations for REALTORS®' behavior. Integrating the code into your professional practice has numerous benefits. Prioritizing your clients' best interests maintains a high service level and preserves your reputation. Satisfied clients are likely to recommend you to others. Ultimately, following the golden rule in your professional life is the ethical choice.
