Face it: The REALTOR® Code of Ethics isn’t exactly light reading. Weighing in at over 7,000 words, just reading the Code of Ethics is a chore many REALTORS® dread.

Important reminder: As great (and helpful!) as we think our Straight Talk rendition of the Code is, it’s not a substitute for the real REALTOR Code of Ethics. It’s the standard (and verbiage) of real Code to which you are held, and the standard for adjudicating any ethics complaints filed against or by you. Enjoy Straight Talk for its layman’s language, but make sure you know the Code, too.
